Warner Chappell Music has announced details of a sub-publishing deal with Sri Lankan publisher and record label, OneNote Records.
Warner Chappell Music Malaysia will now oversee all publishing for OneNote Records’ roster of artists and songwriters.
This is the first time that a Sri Lankan music company has partnered with any division of Warner Music Group, where execs hope that the partnership will help Warner Chappell grow in the Asia-Pacific region and boost OneNote artists with its resource.
OneNote Records launched in 2017 as a division of Ceylon Records Music and specializes in blues, country, jazz, rock and film scores. It became fully independent in 2018 and counts major Sri Lankan songwriters, including Ravindu Panagoda, Suvindu Atapattu and Rashmidu Bandara.
