I'm the CEO of Big Machine Records. I've worked with artists like Taylor Swift and Rascal Flatts - here's a day in my life.

"After my workout, I become a fireman by checking my phone and seeing what's happening in the business, because there's always something burning. I respond to urgent messages so that I can focus on the day's mission. When you have 35-plus artists, there's always a meeting, new music to be made, and the next TV show to schedule. I eat light in the morning; I like to let the workout burn. I'm more of a green tea person, as that"

"I started my career in the mailroom for my dad's promotion company and worked my way up after we moved from California to Nashville. I played bass in a country band at night, where I learned about the music industry. I used that knowledge to pursue jobs at record labels. My first job in the industry was at MTM Records."

Scott Borchetta began in his father's promotion company's mailroom, played bass in a country band, and held roles at MTM, MCA, DreamWorks, and Universal before founding Big Machine Records in 2005. Big Machine Label Group grew over two decades and has represented artists such as Taylor Swift, Rascal Flatts, Reba McEntire, Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett, and others. Borchetta wakes at 6:15 a.m. and completes a 90-minute workout, training at home three days and at a physical therapy center two days. He checks urgent messages immediately after exercising to manage constant label demands, eats light, and prefers green tea.
