Music publishers Chrysalis Music have announced they have just signed Johnny Marr to a new worldwide publishing deal. The deal covers all of Marr's future work, plus a lot of his earlier material, including work with Crowded House, Modest Mouse and Electronic, and his own band Johnny Marr And The Healers.
Confirming the new deal, Chrysalis MD Alison Donald told reporters: "Johnny is one of the most extraordinary talents in music. His virtuosity as a guitarist has been long acknowledged, but Johnny has also been of the UK's prime songwriters and we're honoured to be able to work with him as a result of this new deal".
