Republic Records is relaunching Mercury Records as an imprint in the U.S.
In addition to those artists, Mercury will be the hub for Republic’s partnerships with Big Loud Records — home to Morgan Wallen — and Imperial Music, the independent distribution wing that last year made waves through the release of Bo Burnham’s Inside .“We’re very grateful to Monte and Avery for entrusting us with such a legendary label and brand,” Arnold said in a statement announcing the news.
“Tyler and I each began our careers at Republic and have worked together for almost a decade,” Adelson said in his own statament. “We’ve leaned on Republic co-presidents Jim Roppo and Wendy Goldstein for their wisdom, perspective and guidance and hope to bring that same leadership and forward-thinking to our roles at Mercury. The path to success looks different for every musician and Tyler and I are committed to fostering an environment where artists who are themselves can thrive.
Both Arnold and Adelson, who began their careers at Republic, have had a string of success in their signings in recent years. In addition to bringing on Post Malone and leading the Big Loud partnership, Arnold signed Clairo, Burnham, Butler and Zucker and spearheaded Republic’s partnership with Metro Boomin. Adelson, meanwhile, signed Conan Gray, Lord Huron, Noah Kahan and Bay, among others.
“Tyler and Ben’s accomplishments speak volumes as top A&R executives over the past few years, and the legacy of Mercury Records will be in perfect hands,” Monte Lipman said in a statement. “Their competitive spirit, drive and determination will lead a new vanguard of creative artists into uncharted waters.”
