Forest Glen Whitehead received his breakthrough record in 2015 when Taylor Swift sent out a tweet praising his work with country superstar Kelsea Ballerini. The tweet simply read… “Driving around Nashville Listening to the @Kelseaballerini ep on repeat” and hash-tagged 3 songs that Forest produced and co-wrote. After that.. The next queen of pop/country was born.
Whitehead has produced 5 number one country songs (including "Peter Pan,"" Legends," "Yeah Boy," and "Love Me Like You Mean It") and is most recognized for being the founding producer of country superstar Kelsea Ballerini.
Forest has had several grammy nominations for his work including a 2018 Grammy nomination for Kelsea Ballerini’s sophomore project and in 2021 & 2022 received Grammy Nominations for his work with country artist Mickey Guyton.
Since achieving mainstream success with his music, Whitehead started a website called Music City Playbook in 2020 that educates songwriters, artists and producers on everything from songwriting, production and publishing deals in the Nashville music industry.
Offering online courses and mentorship to the next generation of songwriters and producers, Whitehead's goal is to become the best go-to place for creatives wanting to produce their own music from home while making a living doing so.
