Anthem Entertainment & Wax Records Unveil Partnership
Independent music company Anthem Entertainment and Canadian independent label Wax Records have unveiled a creative partnership aimed at revolutionizing the artist development process. The collaboration, formed in response to today’s evolving music landscape, will work to streamline the music-making process by providing songwriters and producers with resources such as an in-house studio, dedicated writing rooms, international song camps and more.
Wax Records brings over 20 years of industry experience with partners such as Virgin Music, Universal Music, Sony ATV and a roster consisting of artists like Alyssa Reid, Shawn Desman and Virginia to Vegas. Anthem Entertainment offers the talents of hit songwriters such as Chantal Kreviazuk and Timbaland as well as a large catalog of songs, creative teams and studio spaces. By enhancing the relationship between publishing and creative, they hope to offer artists a global experience with both publishing opportunities and label services.
“I’m thrilled to welcome the Wax team—and their exceptional roster of artists—into the Anthem family,” states Jason Klein, Anthem Entertainment CEO. “Jamie and Ron have built an extraordinary label, with a creative and agile approach to artist discovery, development and marketing that transcends conventional limitations. This partnership will allow Wax to elevate their outstanding work with additional resources and infrastructure, and introduce an exciting new creative pipeline for Anthem’s songwriters. The possibilities for global success with this partnership are limitless.”
“The global music marketplace is an ever-changing adventure. Through countless hours of dedication and hard work, we strive to cultivate a vibrant entrepreneurial culture that supports and provides globalization opportunities for our community,” shares Jamie Appleby, Wax Records President and Head of A&R. “We are excited for the next evolution of Wax Records, and have tremendous admiration for Jason and the exceptional team at Anthem. This new venture will expand our on-going commitment to our incredible artists, venture partners and sub-label groups.”
