Texas-born songwriter Terri Jo Box has re-signed her deal with Jonas Group Publishing.

Box was the first writer signed to JGP in 2020, and has had cuts with Cody Johnson on “God Bless The Boy (Cori’s Song)” and Lainey Wilson with “Those Boots (Deddy’s Song)” and “Hillbilly Hippie,” which both appeared on Wilson’s Grammy-winning Bell Bottom Country album.


In addition to her JGP cuts, she’s enjoyed success with Ashley McBryde’s “American Scandal” and “Bible and a .44,” which has also been recorded by Eric Church, Trisha Yearwood and others. Her song, “Dear Old Sun,” written with Miranda Lambert and Gwen Sebastian, was featured on Lambert’s Weight Of These Wings album, which won the 2017 ACM Album of the Year award. Named to the 2023 Class of Up-and-Coming Songwriters by the Association of Independent Music Publishers, Box has also had songs recorded by Patty Loveless, Joe Nichols, Gary LeVox, Wade Hayes, Bryan Martin, Annie Bosko and more.

“I heard something so unique in Terri Jo, that I signed her to a publishing deal even before JGP was established,” says JGE Founder and Chairman Kevin Jonas Sr. “She writes from a different viewpoint from most of us, but she speaks to all of us, and that’s a special gift.”

“Terri Jo has a deep understanding of what makes country music country,” says JGP President Leslie T. DiPiero. “She is a visible thread between new and established artists and writers. Her approach to songwriting and encouragement of all songwriters enriches our creative community.”


“Having Leslie DiPiero on my side is such a gift,” says Box. “Leslie is a songwriter’s best friend; she will fight, crawl, scrap, cheer, celebrate, and work tirelessly to get her writers across the line to win. She, Emily Peacock and the entire team are Music Row royalty, and I am so grateful to call them ‘my team.’ And working with Kevin Jonas Sr. has been an honor and growing experience for me. To have the wisdom AND kindness of somebody who has been so immersed in all aspects of the industry has been invaluable. He is such a lover of songs. Kevin, Denise Jonas, and all ‘the boys’ are such a beautiful, epic, family love story.”
