Skindred sign to BMG Rights Management
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 9 August 2010
Ragga metallers Skindred have signed a worldwide publishing deal with BMG Rights Management, it has been announced.
The deal covers all songs written by the band to date, as well as their work individually, such as frontman Benji Webbe’s co-songwriting credit on Bullet For My Valentine’s ‘Take It Out On Me’.
Skindred’s manager Seven Webster of 7pm Management told CMU: “We are really excited to be working with Tony Moss and the worldwide BMG Rights Management team. After all the recent nominations the band have received at various awards in the last couple of weeks and seeing the band play to around 40,000 people at the weekend at Knebworth it helps highlight the importance of this act as a fast growing global concern and this deal is a key part in our strategy going forwards”.
Tony Moss of BMG Rights Management added: “This is a great deal for us as we have nothing like them in the roster – but then I’m not sure there is anyone like them! They’re a fantastic band with great songs and a phenomenal fanbase”.
