MONUMENT RECORDS has signed Pop singer/songwriter SAM DEROSA and released her first official track, "Pill For This."
The NEW YORK-raised DEROSA attended BERKLEE COLLEGE OF MUSIC. It was during her first co-writing session, following her graduation, the song "Broken" was written. It would go on to become a multi-format hit for lovelytheband.
DEROSA performed "Pill For This," her original, on NBC's SONGLAND last night (9/4) in front of producers SHANE MCANALLY, ESTER DEAN, RYAN TEDDER, along with guest recording artist CHARLIE PUTH.
Working with MCANALLY, a multi-GRAMMY Award winning songwriter/producer, the two attempted to turn the song into something that PUTH might eventually record.
After the performance, it was determined that the song was only DEROSA’s to sing. MCANALLY, a co-president of MONUMENT, along with JASON OWEN, brought DEROSA to the label to meet with OWEN and label SVP KATIE MCCARTNEY, who fully agreed.

I instantly knew I wanted to work with her beyond the show, and have been amazed by her depth and heart," said MCANALLY.
