25 leaders for 25 years

The Post highlights professionals who have shaped Nashville since the turn of the millennium

Scott Borchetta

In 2005, Scott Borchetta left Universal Music Nashville to start Big Machine Label Group. The first artist he signed, a local artist from Hendersonville, would become not only the most impactful musician to come out of the Nashville area in the past 25 years, but arguably the most important musician in popular music during the time frame. Borchetta inked future megastar Taylor Swift for his then-new label, but that is just the start of his impact on Nashville.
