SONGS Signs Up Conde Nast

Seeking to carve out a new model for licensing, SONGS Music Publishing struck a novel deal with Conde Nast Entertainment Partners, which agreed to use SONGS' catalog as the primary source of music for original online videos produced for its Glamour, GQ, Vogue and Wired channels on YouTube and elsewhere. 
The nine-year-old boutique publishing company, known for the hands-on career building approach it takes with its 350 songwriters, is taking a similar tack with Conde Nast, promising to provide a high level of service in matching the publisher's   videos with music from Diplo, Brian Lee, Nelly, Matt Thiessen and other artists on its roster.
