Timeline

1962

Scott Borchetta (born July 3, 1962) is an American record executive and founder of the Big Machine Label Group.

1970

He grew up in the San Fernando Valley of Southern California in the 1970s.

His father, Mike Borchetta, worked in record promotions for several Los Angeles record labels, including Capitol Records, RCA Records and Mercury Records.

1978

In 1978, when Borchetta was 16, his father moved to Nashville to start his own independent record promotion company.

Interested in life beyond Los Angeles, Borchetta began to pursue a career in music.

After playing in several rock bands, he left California and moved to Nashville with his father.

There, Borchetta played bass in a country band and spent his days working in his father's mail room promoting country singles.

After 8 months on the road, he left his band since they were not finding success.

While working with his father, Borchetta learned about the music industry and how it operates, and used this knowledge to pursue jobs at record labels.

1985

In 1985, he got a job at MTM Records, where he stayed for three years.

He then spent two years working as an independent promoter before working in promotion and artist development at several other record labels, including MCA Nashville Records, DreamWorks Nashville and Universal Music Nashville.

1995

After a dormancy as he focused on music, he began racing legends cars in 1995 at Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway as part of the Summer Legends Shootout Series founded by country music group Brooks & Dunn.

1999

In 1999, he moved to the NASCAR SuperTruck Weekly Series and won three consecutive championships from 2003 to 2005, and also raced in the Valvoline Cup Truck Series.

2004

Borchetta signed his first artist, singer-songwriter Taylor Swift (whom he had met in 2004) when she was 14 years old.

2005

He started the label in 2005 with Taylor Swift as its first signed artist and 13 employees, he served as its president/CEO, encompassing four imprints: Big Machine Records, BMLG Records, The Valory Music Co. and Nash Icon Records.

In 2005, Borchetta left Universal Music Nashville to start his own independent record label, Big Machine Records.

Borchetta disagreed with how major labels run their business, and felt that he and his friend Neil Adams could run his own label more efficiently than what he had seen.

2010

Swift went on to become Big Machine's most successful artist and win the label two Grammy Awards for Album of the Year for the albums Fearless at the 2010 Grammy Awards and 1989 at the 2016 Grammy Awards.

2014

In its 14th season, Borchetta became the senior mentor of the reality music competition American Idol.

Borchetta befriended NASCAR crew chief Ray Evernham while filming a 2014 episode of Evernham's television series AmeriCarna, and Evernham invited him to drive a 1972 Chevrolet Corvette in the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association.

2015

In 2015, he became an in-house mentor on American Idol in the program's 14th and 15th seasons.

He is also a sports car racing driver in the Trans-Am Series and owner of NASCAR Xfinity Series team Big Machine Racing.

Before Big Machine, Borchetta was a race car driver and executive at the Nashville divisions of DreamWorks Records and MCA Records as well as MTM Records.

Borchetta was born in Burbank, California to parents Shari and Mike Borchetta.

2017

In February 2017, Canadian media company Bell Media announced that it had partnered with Borchetta to develop a new, international television format that would "uncover, develop, and promote pop culture's next musical superstars".

2018

The new series, The Launch, premiered in January 2018, with Borchetta as executive producer.

In his youth, Borchetta competed in motocross and quarter midget racing in Southern California.

2019

On June 30, 2019, Ithaca Holdings, run by Scooter Braun, bought Big Machine Records, with Borchetta staying on as CEO.

This transaction included the masters of Swift's first six albums.

Swift voiced her frustrations in a Tumblr post, saying to have been trying to buy the masters for years and described Braun as an "incessant, manipulative bully".

Swift also said Borchetta's loyalty was only through contracts, and that he knew "exactly what he was doing" when making this deal with Ithaca Holdings.

Swift expressed that these men were "controlling a woman who did not want to be associated with them".

The dispute escalated throughout the year, both parties claiming to be owed millions of dollars from the other.

Swift accused Braun and Borchetta of holding her back from being able to perform her older songs during her American Music Awards for her Artist of the Decade award, as well as for her Netflix documentary, Miss Americana.

On the same day Swift posted on her Tumblr account, Borchetta went on Big Machine Records and posted his own statement.

He said he forewarned Swift through text the night before.

"Taylor and I remained on very good terms when she told me she wanted to speak with other record companies and see what was out there for her. I never got in her way and wished her well."

He said that she had the opportunity to own not just her recordings, but everything else.

2020

He was inducted into the Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway Hall of Fame in 2020; his SuperTruck crew chief James Buttrey was enshrined a year later.

In March 2021, Borchetta was named executive advisor to the Hall of Fame.
