IMPEL added The Administration MP, Drive Publishing, Red Brick Songs and Lofi Chill & Lofi Jazz to its membership. Now IMPEL, an international collective representing digital publishing rights, will help its new members license their catalogs.
They join other independent music publishers such as Bucks Music Group, Beggars Music, Reservoir Music, Kassner Music, CTM, ABKCO, Truelove Music, Faber Music, Mute Song, Budde UK, Phrased Differently, Legs Music, Reach Music Publishing and Regard Music who are all existing members of IMPEL.
CEO of IMPEL Sarah Williams said of the new additions: “We feel like we've reached a tipping point as an organization in terms of raising awareness of what we do, how we do it and the unique benefits we offer our members. The number of indie publishers looking to join our collaborative family is growing all the time, and it's great to be able to add such a diverse group of US operators to our ranks right away. We continue to make real inroads into the biggest music market on the planet, which will benefit our membership overall.”
