Its roster includes the likes of Avelino, Shed Seven, July Jones, The Waterboys, Her's, Skerryvore, The Rifles, Isobel Campbel and The Orb; and songwriters such as Jacob Attwooll, Robbie Jay and Matty Benbrook.

This partnership with Sentric marks a significant new direction for Cooking Vinyl, which to date has operated via a network of sub-publishing agreements globally.

The administration agreement means that Cooking Vinyl Publishing’s clients will benefit from Sentric’s royalties infrastructure and expertise, more direct, quarterly accounting, and the company’s respected sync team.

Meanwhile, the co-publishing joint venture between Sentric and Cooking Vinyl Publishing will encompass signings, creative, funding, sync, and more.
