The Barry Weiss-helmed Bossy Songs has extended its joint publishing partnership with Sony Music Publishing, and signed pop writing and production phenom Austin Corona to an exclusive deal.

The Henry Lyons-repped Corona has been racking up credits of late, including Columbia’s Halsey (new single “Panic Attack,” “Ego,” “Darwinism,” “Lonely is the Muse”), Zara Larsson (production on the Epic album Venus) and “No Szns,” the hit Top Dawg/RCA collab between Jean Dawson and SZA.

Weiss, whose pubbery maintains an office in New York and has staff in L.A. and Nashville, called Corona "a super-talented, super-versatile writer/producer." Other writers and producers on the Bossy Songs roster include Dan Gleyzer (BTS, Meghan Trainor, CIL), Cheyenna (Dasha, BIZZY) and Michael Sonier (Noah Cyrus, Maggie Rogers, Ella Henderson).

Daniel Lang has been promoted to SVP, Global Society Relations and Digital Rights at Warner Chappell Music. He will continue to be based in London and report to Co-Chair/CEO Guy Moot.

The role expands Lang’s remit to include working with U.S. collection societies, as well as continuing to lead on the publisher’s relations with societies around world to help modernize their business practices and ensure Warner Chappell’s writers are paid more quickly and accurately.

Lang will continue to work closely with EVP, Global Digital Natalie Madaj and her team, as well as the publisher’s local territory heads, while also serving as WCM's lead representative in international negotiations with major digital service providers.

“Daniel has done an incredible job of managing digital licensing and society relations over the last few years," said Moot. "It was an experiment to combine these remits and it paid off handsomely. I’m delighted that he’s agreed to take on this expanded global role as I know our writers will continue to benefit from his proactive, collaborative and inventive approach.”

Lang has worked at WCM since 2017 and has held a series of digital licensing roles that strengthened relationships with partners such as Amazon, Deezer, Facebook, Spotify and YouTube. He was appointed VP, International Digital Licensing and Society Relations in 2021.

Sony Music Publishing Nashville has signed songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist Elysse Yulo, whose versatility has led her to work with Quavo, Lana Del Rey, Zach John King and Maddox Batson, among others.

Recent credits include "Tough" by Del Rey and Quavo, Batson's "Tears in the River" and "I Wanna Know" as well as King’s lead single, "The Way I See You,” from his Wannabe Cowboy EP. She’s currently managed by Samantha Fisher of Sullivan Rose.

“Elysse is a very special talent that I couldn’t be happier to be working with,” SMP Nashville VP Creative A&R Kenley Flynn said. “Her talents as a songwriter and producer are matched only by her work ethic and persistence. I’m so excited to help her reach new heights.” We have no talent to speak of.
