An Independent Music Group
Watershed Music Group is an independent music company working across publishing, administration, and recorded music — through Watershed Music Publishing and Watershed Label Group. Music is a long business. Catalog is treated as an asset, and songs are given room to hold their value over time.
Divisions
Watershed Music Publishing
Publisher
Watershed Music Publishing is the company's publisher. The work is creative: partnering with songwriters, developing catalog, and building relationships with the writers and repertoire owners whose songs become part of the publishing catalog over time. Ownership is treated as a long-term position, not a transaction.
Watershed Label Group
Recorded Music & Label Infrastructure
Watershed Label Group is the company's recorded music and label infrastructure division. It houses four distinct brands — Watershed Records, Lowerstill, Eclaphone Records, and Partner Labels — each with its own role in the group. The work is structural: releases, rights, and the infrastructure that keeps recorded music moving.
Watershed Rights Management
Administrator
Watershed Rights Management is the company's administrator. The work is operational: registering songs, tracking usage, collecting royalties, and managing the systems that keep catalog accurately reported across territories and platforms. Administration is the infrastructure underneath a modern publishing business, and the modern music business demands precision.
Songs under management have been recognized by ASCAP and BMI and have received GMA Dove Awards. Music has appeared on American Idol, The Voice, and many others.
