Warner Chappell Music's Songwave 2026 Comes Ashore

Warner Chappell Music Spain just concluded Songwave 2026, the songwriting camp that fosters collaboration among the global musical community.

During the four-day event at Madrid's PKO Studios, more than 50 songwriters, producers and artists participated in workshops and panel discussions. Such Spanish talent as Hey Kid, Samuraï, J Cruz, Alba La Merced, Anthony Z and Gonzalo Hermida rubbed shoulders with international acts Dougie F, Rubio, Farid Bang and Albin Tenglad, as the attendees shared newly created demos and other creative work.

Santiago Menéndez-Pidal, president of Warner Chappell Music Southern Europe, said, "There is no substitute for face-to-face, hands-on collaboration to foster connection and inspire creativity. Songwave 2026 brought together key players from across the industry in a dynamic, productive environment to forge new relationships, gain fresh knowledge and make great music.”
