Downtown Music Publishing
Since the foundation of Downtown Music Publishing in 2007 and Songtrust in 2011, publishing has been at the core of Downtown’s mission, and as the landscape transformed, Downtown divested its owned song catalog in 2021 to focus exclusively on providing world-class publishing administration and creative services. Downtown Music’s publishing administration services - Downtown Music Publishing, Songtrust, and Sheer Publishing Africa - currently have nearly 360,000 songwriters and almost 5 million copyrights under management. A Downtown Company.
