In a rare and history-making move, MCA Records announced today that country music legend Vince Gill, 68, has signed a lifetime record deal with the label—cementing a partnership that has spanned more than three decades.
The agreement ensures that Gill, one of country music’s most revered voices and songwriters, will continue releasing music under the label for the rest of his career.
Vince Gill Will Release New Songs Every Month for the Next Year
As part of this unprecedented deal, Gill will launch an ambitious new project titled 50 Years From Home, an EP series that will see him release a new collection of songs every month for the next year. Each release will feature a mix of original material and select catalog tracks chosen to complement that month’s theme—offering fans an intimate and ongoing look at the artist’s evolution and creativity.
The first installment, 50 Years From Home: I Gave You Everything I Had, arrives Oct. 17, 2025, and includes the beloved and newly 2x Platinum-certified classic, “Go Rest High on That Mountain.”
“Vince has been a major part of the MCA family for decades,” said Mike Harris, President & CEO of MCA, in an Oct. 7 press release shared directly with Parade. “This lifetime agreement reflects our unwavering commitment to supporting his artistic vision and providing him artistic freedom while ensuring his legacy continues to grow.”

“I’m feeling the most creative I’ve ever felt in my career these last few years,” Gill shared. “I’ve collected a treasure trove of songs, and with my friends and partners at MCA, we’ve come up with a way to release all this new music. It’s a partnership that’s lasted 36 years and I’m grateful for it.”
Gill’s longtime manager, Larry Fitzgerald, who has worked with him for more than four decades, echoed that sentiment: “MCA Records has been Vince’s home since early in his career, and now he knows their partnership will endure into the future. Vince’s fans wanting his music won’t have to look any further than MCA to find it. My relationship with Vince began 41 years ago, and I’m thrilled to stand with him at this important moment.”
