Hailing from the small East Tennessee town of Sparta, country singer/songwriter Seth Alley packed up his guitar and moved to Nashville in 2012. With his earnest demeanor and earthy, country-pop sound, he caught the attention of producer Bill McDermott, setting off a chain of introductions and events that would eventually lead to a publishing contract with Sony ATV and a much sought-after record deal with Big Machine Records (Taylor Swift, Tim McGraw, The Cadillac Three). Working with McDermott, Alley released his self-titled debut EP in late 2014. ~ Timothy Monger
