Following a massive year, up-and-coming Sydney artist J Motor is capping it all off with the announcement that he has signed a worldwide music publishing deal with BMG Australia

The signing comes on the back of his debut single, Jungle Daze, being picked up by MTV's The Challenge as well as being used in a major North American commercial for the NFL and Budweiser. 

The track has also just featured in a recent Acura car commercial in the US. 

"J Motor writes interesting and infectious global pop music," BMG Australia Managing Director, Heath Johns, said.

"The international heat on Jungle Daze is genuinely exciting and we are all confident that this is the start of something special. We are proud to welcome J Motor to the BMG family."
 
Meanwhile, J Motor said of the signing, "I’m absolutely stoked to be joining the BMG family, I’ve been really impressed by the whole global team in the lead up to the signing and I’m looking forward to delivering some hits".

The songwriter will head to the States for the rest of the year to write, record and collaborate on new material.
