Natalie Hemby

“You know when you hear a song and it takes you back to a memory? That’s what I want. I want to give people moments to remember.” It’s evident that singer-songwriter Natalie Hemby is doing just that, making a mark through her songs that have a style and intensity that are uniquely hers.

Raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Hemby signed her first publishing deal in 1997 and has since written songs recorded by artists Sheryl Crow, Miranda Lambert, Eli Young Band, Lady Antebellum, Rosi Golan, Toby Keith, Little Big Town, Lee Ann Womack and more. In the past four years, Hemby has garnered five No. 1 country singles – Lady Antebellum’s “Downtown,” Little Big Town’s “Pontoon” and “Tornado,” and Miranda Lambert’s “White Liar” and “Automatic.” Among her impressive discography of songs are Miranda Lambert’s “Baggage Claim” (#3 Billboard single), “Only Prettier” (#12 Billboard single), as well as Toby Keith’s “Drinks After Work” (#17 Billboard single) and Kelly Clarkson’s “Don’t Rush” featuring Vince Gill (#27 Billboard single).

Hemby is a driving force among songwriters, being revered as one of the top female writers of the industry.  In the last year, Hemby co-wrote seven songs on Miranda Lambert’s release, Platinum, four songs on Little Big Town’s record, and a Blake Shelton cut, while also writing a song for Kelly Clarkson’s album, Piece By Piece. She also found international chart success with the Labrinth single, “Jealous.” She is currently a songwriter with Creative Nation/Pulse Music.
