Meadows, a staff writer for Universal Music Publishing Nashville, has a voice that resides somewhere between Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Marc Broussard and a few more soulful, rootsy rockers. So it’s hard to pigeonhole Meadows as a “country” writer; he’s definitely got few great ballads that work within the country framework—and a couple up-tempos that could lend an ear to, say, Jack Ingram—but he’s got plenty to offer alternative genres as well. And being a good singer and an artist in his own right certainly doesn’t hurt his applicability. But on to another, broader question: Wouldn’t it be nice if more publishers took it upon themselves to put out records themselves and take part in the artist development (where an artist exists) process? Kudos to UMPG for beginning what hopefully will be a new standard for publishers in the biz.

Singer Songwriter Travis Meadows writes about life the only the way he knows it, a bittersweet well of love, irony, anger, pain, healing and happiness. They are the kind of honest songs that reach beyond perfect words and chords to reveal the reality of what life is really like. Through the artistry of his poetic lyrics, he balances good with bad and love with pain.
Well-known among songwriter's circles in Nashville, Travis is an unforgettable performer whose well crafted songs and raw vocal ability have won him the attention of fans in some of Nashville’s more popular live venues. In part, it was his commanding performances that landed him a coveted songwriting contract with Universal Music Publishing Group in 2005, who invited him to join their celebrated list of songwriters, some of the best in the world. Having already received numerous accolades for his songwriting, including a 2001 ASCAP award and eight Top 20 hit singles in the Christian market, joining with Universal was a natural progression.
Growing up in Mississippi, Travis laid the foundation for his music career while making the rounds at local bars and clubs, performing with legendary blue's players such as Sam Myers (Anson Funderburg and the Rockets) and Fingers Taylor (Jimmy Buffett). His music has taken him around the world, where he has performed before millions in over twenty countries. Additionally, he has recorded five independent projects gaining him loyal fans everywhere.
Since joining UMPG, Travis has had numerous cuts on artists such as Mary Gauthier and Jake Owen. He's also scored three number one singles on two Gold records with Australian artist Adam Brand.
