Multi-genre songwriter and producer Julian Bunetta has signed a global publishing agreement with Sony Music Publishing.

With an expansive body of work that has exceeded 30 billion streams, Bunetta has achieved acclaim as a key collaborator with top talent including Sabrina Carpenter, Teddy Swims, Thomas Rhett, One Direction, Niall Horan, Rudimental and many others.

Bunetta’s recent success includes co-writing and co-producing Carpenter’s top 40 No. 1 hit “Espresso,” which also topped Billboard’s Global 200 and Global Excl. US charts; and Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control,” which became chart-toppers on top 40 and on the Billboard Hot 100, while also securing No. 1 spots on several airplay rankings including Pop, Adult Pop and Adult R&B.

Jon Platt, Chairman & CEO of Sony Music Publishing, shares, “Julian and I have crossed paths many times since the beginning of his career, and it has been incredible to see all that he has accomplished. His continued success speaks volumes about his talent and integrity, and we are honored to be on this journey with him.”

“Julian is an exceptional talent who continues to up his game. His authenticity shines through in everything he works on, and he brings the best out of everyone,” adds Sony Music Publishing’s SVP of Creative Katie Welle. “We are excited to join forces with Julian and his team, and we look forward to further extending his success together.”

“I’m excited to be working with the Sony team. I’ve known Katie and Jon nearly my whole career and they’ve always been incredibly supportive of my songwriting,” Bunetta says.

Throughout his career, Bunetta has created iconic hits including One Direction’s “Story of My Life” and “Drag Me Down,” Niall Horan’s “Slow Hands,” Rudimental’s “These Days,” Rhett’s “Look What God Gave Her.” He contributed across Rhett’s 2017 Grammy-nominated album Life Changes, as well as his most recent album About A Woman.
