NASHVILLE, Tenn.—GRAMMY®-nominated singer/songwriter Rhett Walker is among four acclaimed artists joining the growing First Company Management family, the firm’s general manager Mike McCloskey announced today.
One of Christian music’s leading full-service entertainment management agencies, First Company has also inked exclusive representation agreements with Jordan St. Cyr, a multi-GMA Canada Covenant Award-winning artist; The Creak Music singer/songwriter Stillman; and social media sensation Joshua Micah.
“Our First Company team is honored to partner with these incredible artists who are already making such an impact in the industry,” said McCloskey. “We’re grateful for the opportunity to walk alongside Rhett, Jordan, Stillman and Joshua to help steward each of their unique artistic endeavors.”
Nominated for a 2013 GRAMMY® Award for the Rhett Walker Band hit single “When Mercy Found Me,” Walker is also a three-time GMA Dove Award nominee. The Rhett Walker Band released two full-length recordings, while Walker’s self-titled debut EP bowed last year from Provident Label Group. In addition to multiple appearances on the legendary Grand Ole Opy, Walker has toured with such artists as Newsboys and MercyMe and has been featured on FOX News and The Huffington Post, among other leading outlets.
Jordan St. Cyr is a 2019 recipient of five GMA Canada Covenant Awards, including Male Vocalist of the Year and Song of the Year for his Canadian chart topper “In My Lifetime.” St. Cyr, who began his career leading worship, is currently at work on a new project, as well as touring throughout the US and Canada.

Rising to prominence via the social media app Vine, Joshua Micah has captured the attention of more than 750,000 fans and clocked over 130 million views on Vine and other social platforms. Signed to Chicago-based Hatch Music and booked by Creative Artists Agency (CAA), Micah’s singles “Parachute” and “Who Says?” both hit #1 on Billboard’s Christian Hot AC/CHR chart in 2017.
