The Nashville-based songwriter and producer's notable works include Dylan Scott's "Nobody" and "Can't Have Mine (Find You a Girl)," as well as Mitchell Tenpenny's "Truth About You."

Alderman's portfolio includes collaborations with prominent artists such as Jake Owen, Nate Smith, and Meghan Patrick. While specific financial terms remain undisclosed, the deal encompasses both songwriting and production credits.

Noah Dewey, Anthem Publishing VP of creative, praised Alderman's accomplishments: "He's an accomplished songwriter with immense natural musical talent, accompanied by a drive to win. Matt will be an amazing addition to our roster here at Anthem."
