Ava Suppelsa is one of Nashville’s standout young songwriters, building a career that rivals writers twice her age. Originally from Chicago, she studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston before moving to Nashville at 19 to pursue songwriting full-time.

A versatile topliner, Ava has been named one of Nashville Briefing’s “25 Songwriters to Watch” and featured on their “30 Under 30” list. Her songs have been recorded by Lady A, Carly Pearce, Max McNown, Keith Urban, Randall King, Avery Anna, Donovan Woods, Flatland Cavalry, and more. Her credits have racked up more than 400 million streams and have landed on both U.S. and Canadian country radio.

Ava co-wrote Max McNown’s viral breakout hit and 2× Platinum single “Better Me For You (Brown Eyes),” which has surpassed 300 million streams worldwide. The song reached No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100, spent more than 30 weeks on the chart, and continues to make waves across country, pop, and Hot AC radio.

Outside of songwriting, Ava is the founder of Hope On The Row, a nonprofit she runs that serves Nashville’s unhoused community every week.
