Reservoir has inked a global pub deal with writer/producer Warren “Oak” Felder. The agreement expands on a joint venture established in 2017, which saw Reservoir signed Oak’s songwriting and producing collective, The Orphanage.

Oak first rose to prominence as part of production duo Pop & Oak, which helped pen Nicki Minaj’s platinum-selling “Your Love” in 2010. His credits also include Alessia Cara, Demi Lovato, Rihanna, John Legend, Ariana Grande, Lizzo, Kehlani, The Chainsmokers, Alicia Keys and more.

Oak is managed by Milk & Honey Management + Sports + Ventures’ President/Founder Lucas Keller, Senior Manager and Head of International Peter Coquillard and Dustin Aquino.

“Reservoir has already been a fantastic partner for helping to grow my publishing company and I’m looking forward to putting even more awards on the walls with them,” said Oak.

“Reservoir signing Oak is the result of a real multi-year investment in relationship,” said Keller. Coquillard continues, “We’re thrilled that [Oak] can now have both his own compositions and that of his team in such good hands.”

“As we expand our business, one of our goals is to represent creative talents who are at the top of their game and the very best at what they do, and that is Oak,” added Reservoir EVP, Global Creative Director, Donna Caseine
