Business News Deals Labels & Publishers
Reverb Music acquired by US publisher
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 18 September 2012
UK-based music publisher Reverb Music has been bought by New York-based Reservoir Media Management. Under the deal, Reverb will continue to operate as normal in the UK and Europe under that name, but will also work in partnership with its parent company’s publishing business in America. The London office will still be led by Reverb MD Annette Barrett.
Confirming the deal, Reservoir’s Exec VP Rell Lafargue told CMU: “The acquisition of Reverb Music builds on Reservoir’s already robust infrastructure by adding an administrative and creative presence for our company and our songwriters in the United Kingdom. I look forward to integrating the Reverb catalogue and welcoming the team, as well as a host of incredibly talented songwriters”.
Meanwhile Barrett added: “I am thrilled to forge this new relationship with Reservoir and carry on the Reverb legacy. To be able to continue to build on the strong foundations of the catalogue and current roster created with the support and resources of Reservoir is ideal”.
