Riser House Entertainment is an independent record label and music publishing company based in Nashville, TN, representing a dynamic roster of artists across the country and alternative music space. The label roster includes Mitchell Tenpenny, Meghan Patrick, Dillon Carmichael, Stephen Day, The Wldlfe, and Ash Ruder.
Riser House is built on a hands-on, artist-first approach — where marketing, creative, and publishing teams work closely together to develop music, shape campaigns, and bring releases to life. Through both its label and publishing arms, Riser House offers a unique, inside look at how songs move from idea to release and into culture.
We are seeking enthusiastic, motivated student interns to join our Nashville team. This is an opportunity to get a real behind-the-scenes look at a working independent label and publishing company, with exposure to how modern music is built, marketed, and monetized.
As a creative marketing intern for Summer 2026, you’ll experience a boutique, highly collaborative environment where no two days look the same. You’ll gain hands-on insight into music publishing and how it connects with the broader label ecosystem, working closely with both publishing and label teams to understand the full lifecycle of a song and artist career.
