THiS Music, led by General Manager Rusty Gaston, was launched in partnership with Warner, and the major will continue to administer the company’s catalogue under the new deal.
Confirming the partnership had been renewed, Ben Vaughn, Exec VP for Warner/Chappell Nashville told reporters: “THiS Music is a renowned Nashville brand known for top shelf hit songs, and extraordinary songwriters who are helped to achieve their best by Rusty and his team. On behalf of everyone at Warner/Chappell Music, it is with great pleasure that we announce the continuation of our partnership with Rusty, Tim and Connie”.
Meanwhile Gaston added: “We are blessed and thrilled with how far THiS Music has come in building a hands-on boutique environment for some of today’s best songwriters. Warner/Chappell Music has been a rock solid partner over the course of the past seven years, and together our teams have helped to create hit singles and influential country music that we are extremely proud of. Extending our arrangement with Warner/Chappell was an easy decision and we look forward to continue working with them”.
