Perfect Havoc partners with The Orchard
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 27 February 2023
Dance music focussed indie label Perfect Havoc has signed a new global distribution deal with Sony Music’s The Orchard.
The label’s co-founder Robert Davies says that he, his fellow founder Adam Griffin and the Perfect Havoc team are “delighted to be joining The Orchard family worldwide”.
Bigging up The Orchard’s team – and specifically Orchard UK MD Ian Dutt and GM for UK & Europe Chris Manning – he goes on: “They are the perfect partner for Perfect Havoc showing unrivalled belief in our A&R vision, marketing strategy and in our ability to continue to bring through new talent whilst maximising our existing roster. We are so excited to be working together and delivering forward thinking, quality new music”.
Dutt adds: “We are delighted to welcome Adam, Rob and the Perfect Havoc team to The Orchard. They have built an incredible business over the past few years and we very much look forward to helping them on their exciting journey”.
In addition to distribution, say the two companies, “the deal will also focus on acquisitions and investments in playlists, media channels and catalogue”.
Founded in 2015, Perfect Havoc has scored a number of hits, including a number one with ‘Head & Heart’ by Joel Corey and MNEK – in partnership with Warner’s Atlantic.
The label will release its first album, by producer Ros T, this spring. Other releases in the pipeline will come from Lusaint, Chaney, ben Pearce, Zac Samuel, Just Kiddin, Harrison, Freejak and more.
