February 1, 2022/by Lydia Farthing

Sony Music Publishing has unveiled Songwriter Assistance, a new program which will provide its global roster of songwriters and composers with access to free, confidential counseling services and wellness resources.

Starting today (Feb. 1), Songwriter Assistance will offer 24/7 counseling support via global hotlines, as well as ongoing counseling services for emotional health matters, including stress, anxiety, depression, and family/relationship challenges.

“We are committed to providing you with services that matter,” shared Chairman and CEO, Sony Music Publishing, Jon Platt in a letter to songwriters and composers. “The importance of wellness cannot be overstated, and with Songwriter Assistance, we look forward to offering a whole new level of care and support.”

With Songwriter Assistance, Sony Music Publishing songwriters will also have access to customized resources for tackling daily responsibilities, such as researching childcare and eldercare options, navigating life transitions, co-parenting, budgeting for major life events, and more.

Amy Cranford, Sr. VP, Publishing Administration, Sony Music Publishing shares: “We are passionate about taking care of Sony Music Publishing’s songwriters and composers and providing them with the best level of support. As we continue to expand our services with Songwriters Forward, we are proud to implement SMP’s Songwriter Assistance initiative.”
