Nashville, TN – January 24, 2025 – Provident Entertainment/Sony Music is thrilled to announce the signing of Madison Watkins, the newest addition to their growing roster. Known for her powerhouse voice, soulful authenticity, and larger-than-life stage presence, Madison is embarking on the next chapter of her career as she readies a new project to release later this Spring. 

“We are honored, and so excited to have Madison as part of our Provident family,” shares Holly Zabka, President of Provident Entertainment. “The new music she has created is fresh and unique, and Madison’s work ethic is second to none. We can’t wait to see how her artistry and these songs impact people around the globe.”

To kick off this new label partnership, Madison is releasing her highly anticipated new single, “Spin,” today (January 24, 2025). Though the song is just a first taste of what’s to come from this new project, Madison gets vulnerable quickly - the lyrics of “Spin” encourage listeners to embrace the beauty in slowing down and reconnecting with the world around us.

"Writing and recording the song 'Spin' has helped me walk through anxiety, let go of my fears, and learn to live like a kid again,” shares Madison. “There is a lot going on in the world right now, and my hope is that this song will provide the perfect way to remind others to get out of their heads and reconnect with where they are in the here and now.”

LISTEN TO “SPIN” HERE.

Madison has been releasing music since 2019, and has already built a strong and dedicated following on social media due to several major television appearances and brand partnership campaigns.

ABOUT MADISON WATKINS:
Madison Watkins began making waves in the music industry only moments after she stepped on stage and captivated audiences with her powerhouse voice, meaningful songwriting, and in-your-face energy. After receiving global recognition on multiple television programs for her soulful performances and enthralling stage presence, the Arkansas native continued to capture audiences’ attention with her original music. Her song “Curls” received over 1.5 billion plays on TikTok, which was followed by several impactful singles (“Someday”, “Lose To Love”, “Kiss U”) to help build out a vibrant collection of songs celebrating confidence, faith, and love. 
 
Madison’s experience includes onstage performances with artists such as Jason Derulo and Tori Kelly, and her music has been featured on television and major brand campaigns (Aussie Hair, Steve Madden, LG, and PUMA to name a few). Now signed to Sony Music/Provident Entertainment, she embarks on an immensely exciting new chapter with fresh music that blends her signature pop-soul sound, inspiring messages, and fiery passion. Ahead of an EP release schedule for the summer of 2025, she releases her first single in two years “Spin” on January 24. As one of today’s most compelling new voices, Madison Watkins is poised to shine with confidence, charisma, and purpose.
