March 9, 2008 - Last week at the Country Radio Seminar in Nashville during the Sony BMG annual boat show, it was announced that Craig Morgan was the latest artist to sign with the label. Sony BMG Nashville Chairman Joe Galante greeted the crowd of industry insiders and radio personell saying, "It's a rare privilege to welcome a new addition to the roster whose hard work and commitment to the music has enabled him, so early in his career, to build such a strong base with the industry and the fans."

Morgan remarked, "I am as excited about this as I was when I signed my first record deal at Atlantic years ago! Sony BMG Nashville is simply the best of the best, and to have this partnership going forward is the greatest way I could think of to get my new music out to the fans. Joe and Butch [Waugh, Sony BMG Nashville executive VP] and everyone at Sony BMG Nashville have already made me feel so welcome, it seems like this has been meant to be for a long time!"

Fans can look forward to a single by early summer, and an album by early fall.
