Louisiana native Beau Bailey is making a name for himself as one of Nashville’s fastest-growing hit songwriters. He has penned songs for artists like HARDY, Blake Shelton, Dierks Bentley, Cole Swindell, Parmalee, Hudson Westbrook, Graham Barham, Chase Matthew, Dylan Marlowe, and many more in just a few short years. His writing carries the weight of someone who’s lived the life he writes about, with hooks that stick and stories that hit home.

Bailey has two hit country songs climbing country radio charts: HARDY’s “Favorite Country Song” and Blake Shelton’s “Stay Country or Die Tryin’.” Additional standout releases include Dierks Bentley’s title track, “Broken Branches” featuring Riley Green and John Anderson, “Sober” and “Weatherman” by Hudson Westbrook and “Oil Money” by Graham Barham—further showcasing Beau’s ability to craft emotionally charged, resonant tracks across today’s diverse country landscape.

In August 2023, Beau signed a publishing deal with hit songwriter Ashley Gorley’s Tape Room Music in partnership with Red Light Management. Tape Room Music SVP of A&R Kelly Bolton praised Beau’s “tenacity, creative instincts, and passion”—qualities that make him a standout in a competitive field. Beau calls working with the Tape Room team “an absolute honor,” adding that it feels like exactly where he’s meant to be.

Raised in Monroe, Louisiana, Beau grew up duck hunting in the flooded timber, fishing oxbow lakes off the Mississippi River, and playing baseball. These experiences laid the foundation for his songwriting voice—honest, textured, and rooted in real life. He began writing songs at age 15, drawing from his upbringing and love of music to craft lyrics with emotional impact and commercial appeal.
