A CHORUS OF PRAISE: IVORS 2024 NOMS
Sony/ATV Music Publishing has entered into a worldwide futures deal with songwriter Sam Hollander, whose song “High Hopes” for Panic! At The Disco is one of 2019’s biggest hits.
The celebrated songwriter has had chart success with a wide array of artists across his distinguished career, including the likes of Fitz and The Tantrums, One Direction, Katy Perry, Blink-182 and Weezer.
Sony/ATV SVP, A&R Rich Christina (seen at right with Hollander) said: "Sam has been one of my favorite songwriters and a dear friend for a very long time. It’s beyond an honor to finally get to work directly with him and have him join the Sony/ATV family.”
Sam Hollander added: “I’m so thrilled to begin this chapter of my career, joining the almighty Sony/ATV. Working with the legendary Jon Platt, Rich Christina, Brian Monaco and the rest of the Sony/ATV family is a dream come true.”
Hollander’s songs have achieved 10 #1, 47 top five and 75 Top 10 chart positions globally. He was named Hot List Producer of the Year by Rolling Stone, and served as the music producer for the Steven Spielberg executive-produced NBC TV show Smash, for which he produced the Emmy-nominated song “I Heard Your Voice In A Dream.”
