UK based music publisher Song Solutions has announced the launch of SEACHANGE; a new imprint which embeds values of shared success and social justice into the heart of song publishing.
SEACHANGE combines the precision of high-level music publishing and administration with the vision to instil values of community, writer development and compassion into the way songs are published.
Where historically, traditional publishing deals have been between the songwriter and the publisher, with SEACHANGE two new portions of royalty income are introduced. The ‘Team Fund’ is shared between the writers on the roster, promoting a strong value of shared success, and the ‘Change Fund’ goes towards fuelling and funding the work of social justice and climate care.
Launching with a roster of writers including Elle Limebear, Jake and Mates, Jonny Bird, Sarah Bird, Anna Hamilton and Nora Bart, it is clear that this fresh vision for music publishing is resonating with songwriters.
Jamie Thomson, Head of Publishing and A&R at Song Solutions said; “Many people are sensing the winds of change in the music industry, and we are no different. We often talk about songs changing the world, but we wondered what it would look like to design a new publishing model that harnesses the power of songs to shape a fairer world, where royalties catalyse change, both in the world we live in and the creative communities we call home. We are delighted to be launching SEACHANGE and to be doing it with such a talented roster of writers; we firmly believe this isn’t just a moment for one music publisher, but a moment for music publishing to think about how our industry can build a better world.”
SEACHANGE is a publishing imprint of Song Solutions, a UK based global music publisher with over 30 years experience of providing solutions to the complexity of the music industry.
