WME Signs Zac Brown Band

WME has signed the record-breaking, multi-platinum, three-time Grammy Award-winning Zac Brown Band.

Over the course of their decade plus career, Zac Brown Band has developed a legendary reputation with critics and fans alike as one of the best live acts marked by strong musicianship that defies genre boundaries. The band is only one of two acts in history to have topped both the Country Airplay and Mainstream Rock Songs charts with “Homegrown” and “Heavy is the Head” (ft. Chris Cornell), respectively, both from the 2015 album Jekyll + Hyde.

The band currently holds the record for most consecutive sold out shows at the historic Fenway Park with nine shows. The only other artist to come close to their record is Paul McCartney.

In addition, Zac Brown Band is currently on the second leg of its successful “Down the Rabbit Hole Live Tour” and will kick off their highly anticipated “The Owl Tour” in June 2019.

Zac Brown Band’s success can also be attributed to Brown’s interest in always pushing creative boundaries and collaborating with top artists across all genres including Avicii, Chris Cornell, Jimmy Buffett, Foo Fighters, Sheryl Crow, Sara Bareilles and Jason Mraz, to name a few. The band also recently teamed up with Shawn Mendes who co-wrote the band’s latest single “Someone I Used to Know” and appeared on CMT’s “Crossroads” last fall.

Zac Brown Band has had five consecutive albums reach the top 10 of the Billboard 200 and four consecutive albums debut at #1 on Billboard's Country Albums chart. To date, the group has sold more than 30 million singles, 9 million albums, has achieved 15 No. 1 radio singles.

Additionally, Zac Brown Band has scored eight Grammy nominations and three wins, including ‘Best Country Album’ (2012), ‘Best Country Collaboration with Vocals’ (2010) and ‘Best New Artist’ (2009).

Zac Brown Band is represented by Scooter Braun’s SB Projects and recently signed a global licensing agreement with BMG for their next studio album, set to release Summer 2019.
