Today, we announced that we are joining together with to create the world’s leading independent music company.

“We are excited to begin working together to build something truly exceptional. Both companies were founded to support great artistry and with a deep sense of responsibility to the performers, songwriters, and playwrights we serve.

This is not about replicating the major label model; it’s about using scale to strengthen independence. Together, we will build a company that gives artists more reach and more flexibility – all designed to support their distinct visions.” - Bob Valentine, CEO

2025 came and went! What a year it was with so many milestones to look back on and celebrate.

With back to back to back #1 albums in the UK with publishing clients, TikTok trends galore between rock and theater fans alike, GRAMMY and Latin GRAMMY nominations and wins, a top 10 North American touring act in Pierce The Veil, the 60th anniversary of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s The Sound of Music, a Peabody award-winning docuseries, and the acquisition of historic studio RKO Pictures, it’s been non-stop and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

We’re so proud of everyone in the Concord family - artists, writers, producers, playwrights, and everyone who brings their art to the world. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year from us to you!
