Publisher Online Pitch with Dallas Gregory

About Dallas Gregory

Senior Creative Director & General Manager – Song Rocket Music

Music veteran Dallas Gregory has nearly 25 years experience in the music Industry. The product of a musical family, Gregory grew up in Georgia, singing and playing Southern Gospel and Country music. Accepting an invitation to move to Nashville as a background vocalist, Dallas arrived and began working as an artist and background singer for the Grand Ole Opry Road Show, sharing the stage with many Country Music Legends including Roy Acuff, Minnie Pearl and Loretta Lynn. After 7 incredible years with the Opry Show, Dallas was offered a position in the Studio and Recording segment of the music industry as studio manager at Masterfonics, a world renown Recording studio and Mastering facility, located in Nashville, Tn. While at Masterfonics Dallas worked with many of today’s top stars, producers and session players in country, rock, pop and gospel music. From Materfonics, Dallas transitioned into music publishing, as Creative Director at High Seas Music Publishing.

Gregory’s focus was writer and catalog development and song representation to some of Nashville’s finest hit songwriters. While at High Seas Music, Gregory helped secure over 100 cuts, including cuts by artists such as Dolly Parton, Joe Nichols, The Oak Ridge Boys, Pam Tillis, David Ball, Tracy Byrd, Collin Raye and others. After nine years at High Seas, Dallas launched his own publishing company in 2002, “Song Rocket Music”, focusing on music publishing, writer representation and development, artist development, music production and consulting. Song Rocket Music is currently affiliated with several hit songwriters, enjoying successes with song cuts by artists such as Rascl Flatts, Luke Bryan, Sarah Darling, Thompson Square, Canadian artist, Shane Yellowbird, Christian artist Guy Penrod, Eric Clapton, Carole King, Kenny Rogers, and Lady Antebellum. Through Song Rocket Music, Gregory is currently developing fresh, new, up and coming country artist, Ashlyn Grayce.

“Music is one of God’s great gifts. Just as God created something from nothing when he made the world, songwriters create something from nothing when they write songs, therefore I believe all songs are God inspired in some way”. “I am blessed by music and its creators”. — Dallas Gregory
