Warner Chappell Music (WCM) and Space Colonel Publishing have established a new partnership with Beau Bedford as their first signing. This new partnership is designed to identify, develop and support groundbreaking songwriters on a global scale.
As a producer, writer, guitarist and pianist, Bedford has worked across genres with a long list of collaborators including Orville Peck, Diplo, Tanner Usrey, Zella Day and Shane Smith & The Saints. He also has a long-standing partnership with Paul Cauthen, producing or co-producing three of his full-length albums.
