Northern Shore Productions
In 2004, Smiley formed his new company Northern Shore Productions, as a studio based production and publishing company in Nashville, TN and Scottsdale, AZ.
With a creative Independent mindset, he has established major distribution partners, both digitally and physically, and has exclusive partners in both TV and film in Nashville and LA.
Developing, writing, producing, and managing a new breed of artists coming into their own in this new decade, Smiley is up to the task. “Everything from rock to alternative, country to pop, folk to Christian, there is a wide range of artistry out there and we have all the ingredients, engineers, players, graphic designers, photographers to make some great music and give these artists a chance to be heard. It’s a great time to be independent, free to create music without the restraints of the old labels ways”, he states.
Some of his new projects include The Technicolors, Jessica Long, Anna Johnson, James Keith, Joelle Maddyson, Elizabeth South, Tessa Barton, The Mark Swayze Band, Derek Lutrell, Molly Hunt, Leslie Craig, Evie Haskell, JPT, Colleen Roseen, Raquel Aurilio, Symphony in Red, Tanya Davis, Scott Wesley Brown, Katie McNinch, Adele Morgan, The Hymns Project, Michelle Stutts, Jenna Hill, Angel Miller, and Diane di Stasio.
