The Entertainer

Nicolle Galyon is one of Nashville’s hardest working women. As a songwriter she’s worked with some of the best and brightest in the business, crafting chart-topping hits and anthemic refrains beloved by industry insiders and listeners alike. She’s written nine #1 singles including Miranda Lambert’s ACM Award-winning “Automatic” and Dan + Shay’s multi-platinum, ACM Award-winning “Tequila.” She’s also received a Grammy and CMA Awards nomination, earned a Triple Play Award, and was honored by BMI as their 2019 Songwriter of the Year.

As a record exec, she saw a need to bring female voices to the forefront and paved her own way to make it happen. Galyon launched the female-focused label and publishing house, Songs & Daughters, in 2019, which includes artists Hailey Whitters, Tiera Kennedy, Madison Kozak, Lauren Watkins, and more.

Now she’s stepping squarely into the spotlight, released last month. From her humble beginnings in the Midwest, to a life of overachieving, to grappling with knowing only half of her family tree, to the constant juggle between motherhood and career and everything in between, the album is Galyon’s lyrical autobiography. It’s a raw and real look inside her world told as only the woman who lived it can.
