Sony signs Doleac
Doleac's "Famous," which he co-wrote with Andy Skib and Bobby Hamrick, will officially ship to country radio as his first Arista Nashville single on Dec. 16.
A co-writer of songs recorded by such stars as Kane Brown ("Pull It Off"), Darius Rucker ("Don't), and Hootie and the Blowfish ("Rollin'), Doleac has toured with Carrie Underwood, Chris Young and Brown.
A Hattiesburg, Miss. native, Doleac became impassioned with music in college. He received a scholarship to the University of Southern Mississippi where he not only played baseball, but wrote songs with his teammates and learned to play guitar. After he began playing hometown area gigs, Doleac posted a performance of one of his songs on YouTube, which accrued millions of views.
He made the move to Nashville, and his career quickly picked up. In 2014, SiriusXM's The Highway selected "I Put It On Ya" as an On The Horizon track. Shortly thereafter, he was offered a publishing deal with Sony/ATV.
