BREAKING MALINA MOYE NEWS! As written up on SoulTrain.com. See what all the fuss is about…
Just over a year ago, SoulTrain.com contributor Starletta Watson profiled left-handed guitar slayer Malina Moye as a SoulTrain.com Sound Check artist…Moye announced earlier this week that she–along with her record label, WCE Records–inked a distribution and marketing deal with BDG-Sony Red.
During their Q&A, Moye mused about her influences, her journey from neophyte player to world-renowned acclaim, and her album Rock & Roll Baby. Never one to rest on her laurels, Moye announced earlier this week that she–along with her record label, WCE Records–inked a distribution and marketing deal with BDG-Sony Red. The deal includes the release of Moye’s aforementioned upcoming full length album, as well as signing independent artists to her WCE label to be distributed via BDG/Red. Brody Distribution Group (BDG) CEO Jeff Brody is especially excited about the new partnership, promising that “BDG and Red are prepared to meet [Moye’s] unique and commercial appeal with 110% global support.” For Moye, the excitement is mutual. “I have found a great partner in Jeff Brody at BDG and his marketing team at Stache Media and Red. I couldn’t think of a better family to be a part of.”
Anyone with an ear to the ground knows that distribution deals and partnerships such as this can be a boon for independent artists, who often find these kinds of arrangements to be more mutually beneficial, profitable, and sustainable than more traditional major label deals. We here at SoulTrain.com are looking forward to hearing Malina Moye’s new music and watching the magic unfold with her new partnership.
