Snow Patrol’s Polar publishing expedition
The now famous Northern Irish band Snow Patrol are venturing into the publishing arena in an effort to support up and coming new talent.
The idea behind the start up of Polar Music is to provide publishing services to music artists by music artists. By cutting out the corporate money makers who would mark up every publishing service they offer, the band hope their more direct approach will give new bands and artists an opportunity to see the publishing processes implemented, giving them more control and input to their publishing requirements.
With Polar Music running as an independent entity to Snow Patrols parent record company, Universal Music Publishing, it will provide an initial stepping stone for breaking artists to been seen in what has become a very competitive market.
How times have progressed for the band, as it was once lead singer Gary Lightbody who had to sell his record collection to afford his rent, but hopefully with the creation of Polar Music, more music hopeful’s will benefit from Snow Patrol’s company, and avoid some of the costly pit falls on the route to stardom.

Hello. I just heard a very nice interview on Canadian radio that highlighted your new publishing venture so I decided to make contact on behalf of an artist with whom I am working.
Over the past thirty years I have been a songwriter, performer and recording artist in Western Canada, and more recently a record producer, label operator and publicist, based in Newfoundland.
I am currently working with Ariel Rubin, my daughter, who has recently released a demo of fourteen original tunes as producer and manager. The demo,titled Shedding the Skin of the Lion, is currently in final production for her debut full length CD release. Ariel is performing in Western Canada and interested in national and international touring.
Based on varied experience over three decades in the industry, I believe her songs are strong and worth promoting. We would be very interested in hearing from you, after you review the tunes currently posted on her myspace page:

Would it be possible for you to forward me the polar music contact details as I am a songwriter and until recently never believed in fate, that is till the day that I had to do some building work at a property. A property that turns out to be Garret ‘Jacknife’ Lee’s property. Seeing the discs has made me feel that I was meant to go there.
If you could help me I would be most grateful
