LP33.tv Announces First in Series of Partnership Deals With Indie Record Labels
SANTA MONICA, Calif. andLONDON, Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- The
TV-centric music promotional and discovery site LP33.tv today announced the
first of two partnership agreements in an on-going series of promotional and
distribution deals with independent record labels that will be rolled out in
the upcoming months.
4 West
New York based 4 West represents the multiple gold and platinum selling
act Schiller, who has been nominated for a Grammy for collaboration with
classical pianist superstar Lang Lang. 4 West also represents new hot-shots
'The Heys,' who are being championed by Alan McGee, former owner of Creation
Records who discovered and launched Oasis.
Juergen Korduletsch of 4 West said, "We approached LP33 before launch as
we were excited by what they had to offer to us and our artists. Not only are
they a video-based promotional platform for current fans, LP33 is also a
brilliant way for discovery and experience of our acts by new fan communities
around the world."
Schiller is a platinum-selling sensation in mainlandEurope and is
currently opening for Depeche Mode on major Arena dates. His latest single
features vocals by platinum-selling US sensation Colbie Caillat, and the video
is available at http://lp33.tv/schiller .
Custard
LP33.tv is very proud to also announce that it has signed a strategic
alliance with Linda Perry's Custard record label. Often credited with
bringing out the real artist in some of today's most acclaimed performers,
songwriter/producer Linda Perry is one of the most sought after names in music
today.
The Custard deal initially revolves around the launch of rock act Bigelf
(http://lp33.tv/bigelf), dubbed the definitive "new classic" in rock, as well
as the UK launch of established US act Ben Jelen (http://lp33.tv/benjelen).
"It's exciting to see what LP33 are working to achieve. With Andrew in
charge, and the backing of members of Genesis and their management, I'm sure
their vision is going to help shape the Music Industry moving forward," says
Perry.
This is the first in a series of announcements this year from LP33.tv
about partnerships with independent labels in both the US andEurope. These
include a number of labels representing established star acts with on-going
significant fan followings, major regional artists (selling several hundred
thousand records) as well as labels representing the next generation of
breakout stars.
CEO Andrew Bentley, who held senior executive positions at EMI Music
noted, "We have been compared favorably in the press several times to MySpace
Music. We have a distinct offering, one that is much more focused and
appropriate for the needs of indie label artists. We have a clear vision of
supporting and enabling talented artists at every level of the industry, and
are proud that Linda Perry and 4 West records recognize the strengths of our
offering."
Artist Liaison Director Catalina Guirado notes, "Artists and their
managers appreciate the deals and revenue generating services we have to
offer, the video-rich environment and programming we make about them, as well
as the embeddable video playlists and stores we offer to promote their music
to a wider audience."
