“I'll always be a fan of ol' stray dogs and guitars playin'... That’s how I’ll always be.”

— from “How I’ll Always Be” recorded by Tim McGraw

Jeremy Stover’s career began with a simple love of music and has grown into one of Nashville’s great success stories. A hit songwriter and producer with hundreds of cuts and multiple No. 1 songs, Stover now leads RED Creative Group, his own publishing and entertainment company.

Growing up in Ellijay, Georgia, Stover drew inspiration from small-town life—fueling songs like Justin Moore’s “Small Town USA,” Tim McGraw’s “How I’ll Always Be,” and Jon Pardi’s “Can’t Turn You Down.” As a producer, he’s worked with Justin Moore, Eli Young Band, Travis Denning, and Drake White —many of whom he helped discover and develop.

After graduating from Belmont University, Stover cut his teeth in publishing at George Strait’s Muy Bueno Music. He signed his first publishing contract in 2000, and his first No. 1 came with Jack Ingram’s “Wherever You Are.” This led to a run of hits with EMI and Sony/ATV before founding RED Creative Group in 2014. Since then, Red has earned numerous chart-topping singles. Currently, Stover has two singles rising the charts at country radio, “The Fall” by Cody Johnson and “Time’s Ticking” by Justin Moore.

RED’s Berry Hill headquarters embodies Stover’s writer-first philosophy. The company’s roster includes Kelly Archer, Travis Denning, Cole Taylor, Matt Mulhare, Noah Hicks, Jon Wayne Hatfield and Jessie Brackin.

“I’m passionate about helping others achieve success,” says Stover. “Music is still about passion, hard work, and perseverance. There is nothing more valuable than a song that brings value to someone’s life.”
