WieRok Entertainment Acquires Amplo Records; Launches Wie3 Records
WieRok Entertainment, the Franklin, Tennessee-based multi-genre recording, publishing and artist development conglomerate, is expanding with the acquisition of Amplo Records and the reveal of a new general market imprint, Wie3 Records.
“This acquisition marks a significant milestone for WieRok and reflects the natural evolution of our vision and partnership,” says Lance Wieland, Co-Founder of WieRok Entertainment Group. “In Latin, ‘amplo’ means ‘to amplify,’ and this definition underscores our purpose: to increase impact for all our artists. We are deeply grateful to Marcus and Jay for their invaluable contributions to Amplo, and we are excited to continue collaborating with them in new ways.”
The company’s flagship label, WieRok Records, launched in January with the signing of chart-topping singer-songwriter Sean Rodriguez and recently welcomed husband/wife duo Grace + Max. The label has also inked exclusive publishing agreements with songwriters Karin Simmons and Madaline Garcia, as well as writers/producers Greg “Gregatron” Williams, Daniel Macal (Sidewalk Prophets) and Tyler Moody.
The acquisition of Amplo Records brings acclaimed singer-songwriter Nathan Sheridan, noted songwriters Phoebe Scott and Kolby Koloff, and songwriters/producers Andrew Barlow and Cole Tague under the sole purview of WieRok Entertainment.
WieRok Entertainment’s new imprint, Wie3 Records, has signed Nashville-based “popera” vocalist David Ask, whose first single with the label is set to be released Friday (April 25).
