Working with the Artist Development Network has completely changed my career as a performing and recording artist.
I've been performing country music since I was eight years old. Since that time I've looked for a company that would do exactly what these people have done for me. I had the privilege of working with people at the head of the music industry. Cathy is absolutely amazing and personalizes everything. The people I was able to work with were incredible. I worked with inspirational songwriters as well as an unbelievable producer, photographer, vocal coach, and musicians.
I could've never accomplished on my own, what I have accomplished with Cathy Lemmon and the Artist Development Network. For that, I thank them all whole-heartedly for putting that extra oomph into my musical journey.

Here's what you can expect from Cathy Lemmon and her staff at The Artist Development Network: Professionalism, honesty (even if it hurts), the connections you are looking for, the know-how, and the nicest people I have ben in a long, long time.
If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with these wonderful people, don't pass it up. They took our "juvenile, unresolved" songs that we had written (that's that painful honesty part) and turned them into professional pieces of music that I will always be proud of.
The experience of going to Nashville and working with Cathy and her staff is one I will always treasure and remember. I will gladly talk to anyone that is thinking of chasing their dream. We chased ours and caught it.

My experience with Cathy Lemmon and the gang at Artist Development Network is one that I will never forget. From the time I stepped foot in their door I was welcomed with open arms.
Cathy promised to put me with great writers and that is exactly what she did. The songs I have written with these writers gives me a great feeling that they will one day soon be big hits!
I knew not one person who could help me break into the music business, but since working with Artist Development Network I have developed those relationships with people who know about the music business and what they are looking for.
I gave the Artist Development Network a chance, and I am so glad that I did! My writing skills have improved tremendously, and I am very happy with all that this company has to offer.
I am looking forward to continuing my project with Artist Development Network and I definitely recommend them to anyone who is trying to break into the music business. I am confident that Cathy and her staff are working very hard to get my foot in the door with the record labels.
Thanks Artist Development Network!

Cathy Lemmon is not only a hard worker, but is kindhearted and an awesome person. She is always on top of things and working not only on her business hours but on her own time.
Her unselfishness is very inspiring. She will not only get you were you need to be, but exceeds your expectations. Cathy always has a positive and uplifting outlook on the future and what it may bring.
Cathy Lemmon treats her clients not only as employers, but as friends.Without her as our agent, we wouldn't be where we are today. We thank her for everything she has done for us.

From the very first phone call to Cathy, The Artist Development Network has been upfront, honest and steadfast
I have hope with things that I want to happen with my songs, but they
never make me any idle promises.
Sitting down with The Artist Development Network on a Saturday afternoon in July was one of the more
exciting highlights of my life. The Artist Development Network led me in directions with my songs
that I would have never thought of – a huge learning experience.
The production part of the business was even more exciting, from the studio
works to the final CD copy. The quality of their work is EXCELLENT.
Someone like myself, with no experience, needs someone like The Artist Development Network to get me what I
want. The Artist Development Network has lived up to my expectations, and when I'm accepting my 1st
Songwriter of the Year award, that's exactly what I'm going to say too.

Because of a showcase put on by The Artist Development Network and the guests invited, I was
approached by a well-known and very talented songwriter who invited
me to write with him. As a result from our writing and the making of
my CD, many doors have opened
to further my career.
The Artist Development Network has been responsible for many important introductions, and I am much
farther along in my career as a result. I value both the personal
and business relationship.
Thank you Cathy.

During this past year, I began to follow my dream of becoming a country
singer and headed my way toward Nashville.
Thanks to Cathy Lemmon and her staff, I was able to work with unbelievable and incredible writers and musicians
Not only was this learning experience so overwhelming, it was really fun. I will never forget it.

When I first came to Nashville I didn’t know anyone. I didn’t know
who to trust. All I wanted was a record deal, and I was willing to take any chance
I could to see my dream through. But I didn’t know the amount of work and
focus it takes to realize those dreams.
I was put in touch with Cathy Lemmon and Artist Development Network.
Although I was wary at first, not knowing Cathy, she and the great people
at The Artist Development Network took me in and made me feel as if I'd belonged there all along.
I was really impressed by the honesty and values Cathy brings to her career.
I am very happy with the job Cathy does, but I am much more proud of the friendships
I have made.
Thanks Cathy!

Nashville would not be the same without the Artist Development Network.
I am so happy with the work that is being done in this business. They
have put so much time and talent into my project.
The Artist Development Network is positive, patient, honest, and hardworking.
I have learned so much from my experience with Cathy and her staff.
If there is anyone who cares about you as an artist and making you the
best you can be for the country music world, it's The Artist Development
Network. They helped develop me into the performer and artist that I
am today.
I will be forever grateful for all their hard work and dedication.

My experience working with The Artist Development Network and Cathy Lemmon in Nashville by far exceeded
my expectations.
Cathy is a consumate professional who applies herself to the project with
great detail and commitment, ensuring that a selection of commercial material
is prepared, suitable for the artist to record. Cathy's vast knowledge of the
industry allowed for a successful studio session, ensuring vocals were delivered
as precisely and commercially as possible, allowing me to do things that I have
never done on stage before. Cathy left no stone unturned and quickly corrected
any faults throughout all aspects of the project.
Anita Cox's unprecedented passion for writing, professional commitment and
attention to detail while editing my songs amazed me and allowed the final product
to be marketable. Cathy and her The Artist Development Network staff's personal dedication and commitment
to me was a direct reflection of the final product: professional and refined.

The Artist Development Network is a great organization!
They can definitely provide a light in the fog that is "Nashville."
It would take months of searching on your own to accomplish what ADN can help you do in a week. Great people – great results!

I want to thank you, Anita, Corey and The Artist Development Network staff for making my first songwriting experience exciting and enjoyable. I can't say enough about being treated like one of the family during my trip to Nashville. Everything from the critiques, collaborations, studio experience and my recent demo met all my expectations...and more. Can't wait to do it all again!
