The singer/songwriter has extended his worldwide recording deal with Sony Music Nashville, and as a sweetener, his future recordings will be released under his vanity Blue Chair Records imprint.

The thrilled star says, "I moved to Nashville to be a songwriter, so to have my own label imprint feels like beyond a dream come true."
