The Core Records and Capitol Music Group have signed Hannah McFarland to their joint venture; it is the first signing announced by the two entities. McFarland’s single, “Hey Highway,” out Friday (Oct. 25), will be the first official release from the new label.

“Signing with The Core Records and Capitol Music Group feels like the perfect fit as I take this next major step in my career,” said McFarland in a statement. “Both teams understand my vision and have the resources and knowledge to help me grow as an artist while staying true to my sound. I’m so excited to have these incredible partners by my side as we work together to share my music with the world.”

Alabama-raised McFarland moved to Nashville in 2016 and has opened for such acts as Kelsea Ballerini, Old Dominion and Travis Tritt. Earlier this year, she joined Zach Bryan on stage to perform “I Remember Everything,” his chart-topping duet with Kacey Musgraves. She is currently on the road with Brett Young, Tucker Wetmore and Kip Moore. Earlier this year, she signed a joint publishing deal with Warner Chappell and The Core Entertainment.

“From the moment we heard Hannah’s music, we knew she had something special,” said Chief Zaruk and Simon Tikhman, co-founders/CEOs of The Core. “Her unique voice, compelling storytelling, and undeniable talent make her a perfect fit for The Core. We’re excited to partner with Capitol Music Group to bring her music to a global audience.”

Chairman/CEO of Capitol Music Group Tom March added, “We are thrilled to welcome Hannah into the Capitol Music Group family alongside our partners at The Core Records. Hannah is a brilliant and talented musician, and we look forward to embarking on this next chapter together with her.”

The Core Records is the new label arm of The Core Entertainment, which was founded in 2019 by Zaruk and Tikhman. The management company’s roster includes Nickelback, Bailey Zimmerman, Nate Smith and Josh Ross. The label has been slowly staffing up, including with Jamie Younger as vp of artist development and Jon Borris as GM.
