New York-based Rebel One’s writers include Scott Harris, who recently penned ten songs for Shawn Mendes’ new album Handwritten, plus writer/producer Kyle Shearer (Tove Lo, Carly Rae Jepsen); artists SIVIK and Lesley Roy, and writer/producer Rob Guariglia.
“As we’ve developed our writers and producers over the last few years, we began looking for a partner that would not only help support us from a business perspective but also strengthen the creative needs of a growing company,” said Marc Jordan, Principal of RebelOne.
“After meeting with Jason Jordan and Kim Frankiewicz, I knew there were synergistic qualities inherent within the potential partnership.
“For that reason, we are very excited for this next phase of Rebel One Publishing with Imagem.”
“WE’RE EXCITED FOR REBEL ONE’S TALENTED WRITERS AND ARTISTS TO JOIN THE IMAGEM FAMILY.”
