Combustion Music

About Me

A joint venture with Windswept Pacific, and affiliated with Vector Management, Combustion Music first opened its doors in 2001 as a small publishing/production company. Combustion Music president Chris Farren and Vector Management’s Ken Levitan envisioned a company that encompassed all facets of the music business, allowing artists, songwriters, managers, producers, and publishers to interact on a daily basis – both creatively and with the sharing of information.
Over the 6 years since its opening, Combustion has become one of Nashville’s most successful independent publishing companies, earning a plethora of multi-platinum cuts and 1 singles, and boasting a roster of 13 strong writers/producers/artists including Gordie Sampson, Blair Daly, Ashley Gorley, Michael Logen, Drew Ramsey, Neil Mason (Bang Bang Bang), Josh Hoge, Sam Brooker and Ruby Amanfu (Sam And Ruby), Nathan and Caleb Followill (Kings Of Leon), JT Harding, and Brandon Young (b.Young).
