In 1989, Horipro purchased the publishing assets of famed rock band, KISS. Next, the company moved on to invest in more catalogs. A year later, Horipro Entertainment Group opened their first US location in Nashville, TN. Over the years, Horipro's songwriters would go on to write many hits for some of Country music's most recognized voices.

In 2006, Horipro's first Los Angeles location opened. The company's catalog has expanded to include over 13,000 songs in each major genre. HEG's Los Angeles location is in partnership with Horipro Music Academy, a music enrichment school for children.
