Round Hill Music has launched Round Hill Records, with an exclusive distribution deal with Red. Initial releases include recordings from Bush, Spacehog and Howie Day. The announcement comes on the heels of a co-ownership deal with Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale, who worked with Round Hill Music to acquire the first four Bush albums from Kirtland Records. The platform was created to manage various master recordings that Round Hill Music acquires.
“While we are a music publisher at our core, expanding into the world of master ownership and exploitation is a natural and organic next step. Thus, Round Hill Records was born,” explains Round Hill Music president, Neil Gillis.
​”We intend to grow our master recording assets in the next few years,” adds Round Hill Music’s CEO and Chairman, Josh Gruss. ​
Round Hill Music opened a Nashville office in January 2014, led by Mark Brown and Kari Smith.
