Union Square announces deal with Sandie Shaw
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 12 October 2012
Catalogue label Union Square Music has signed a long-term deal with Sandie Shaw which will see the singer’s entire catalogue reissued, both physically and digitally, with a best-of compilation and expanded versions of her original albums. Having first come to fame in the 1960s, Shaw continues to perform regularly, and is active within the industry, of course, as one of the key people within the Featured Artists Coalition.
Confirming the new deal, Shaw told CMU: “To have a company totally dedicated to promoting and exploiting back catalogue, using the best possible people to run it, is very attractive to an artist who has the good fortune to own their own work. In the short time I have been with USM I have been deeply impressed with the individual care and attention and sheer professionalism they have shown. It is what all artists deserve for their work”.
Meanwhile Union Square MD Peter Stack added: “USM are thrilled to be representing Sandie Shaw’s catalogue. Sandie is one of the UK’s most successful and iconic artists. Still very active in the record industry she has become an inspiration to many of today’s female artists and we greatly look forward to a creative, imaginative, successful and fun partnership”.
