Warner Chappell’s Musical Connection
• Warner Chappell Music, the global publishing arm of Warner Music Group, has entered into a publishing partnership with Connection Music Publishing, a newly formed publishing entity created by Glassnote Founder & CEO Daniel Glass.
In a joint statement, Warner Chappell Music Co-Chair/CEO Guy Moot, and Co-Chair/COO Carianne Marshall, said, “Glassnote has created a world-renowned record label with Grammy Award-winning artists like Mumford & Sons and Phoenix as part of its repertoire, and that strong legacy of serving as a home to some of the best in the music business is sure to continue with Glass’s latest venture, Connection Music Publishing. With Jackie Post at the helm, we couldn’t be more excited to be in business with this team.”
Glass (pictured) commented, “My longtime friendship and professional relationship with Carianne and Guy has now come full-circle. We are proud to be working with their stellar team to help our songwriters grow.”
The first songwriter signed to Connection Music under this joint venture is Edie Bens, a 21-year-old songstress from Wales whose debut release is due out next year. Jackie Post, Head of Publishing for Connection Music Publishing, said, “This is an incredibly exciting time in the music publishing world. We are building and investing in the next generation of songwriters, and are thrilled to partner with Warner Chappell Music in this endeavor. It is especially meaningful to kick off the relationship with UK-based songwriter Edie Bens.”
