Graham Coxon and James sign to BMG Chrysalis
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 25 April 2012
Graham Coxon has signed an exclusive publishing deal with BMG Chrysalis for his latest solo album, ‘A+E’. He joins fellow Blur bandmate Damon Albarn, who is already part of the BMG Chrysalis roster. BMG Chrysalis UK VP of A&R Ben Bodie told CMU: “It is an honour to represent a songwriter whose work has helped define rock music over the past two decades”.
Elsewhere in BMG news, the publisher has also signed the catalogue of Manchester band James, including all of their 1990s hits like ‘Sit Down’ and ‘She’s A Star’. On that deal Bodie said: “This is an outstanding catalogue of songs, and we are delighted that James have entrusted their catalogue to BMG Chrysalis”.
