Community Music has appointed Rachel Kelly as the General Manager of its new Publishing And Sync arm, expanding its services to encompass recorded music, release, and rights management. This move comes six months after the establishment of Community Music, a platform by UNIFIED Music Group that aims to provide comprehensive artist services. Kelly, a seasoned music and tech industry leader, brings a wealth of experience to her new role, having held key positions at various music companies and industry associations.
Kelly’s appointment underscores the strategic direction of Community Music in becoming a holistic solution for independent artists and songwriters. Her track record in championing Australia’s independent music scene aligns with the company’s mission to empower artists by offering global distribution and artist services. Jaddan Comerford, Founder and CEO of UNIFIED Music Group, expressed confidence in Kelly’s ability to lead the Publishing And Sync division, highlighting her longstanding commitment to supporting independent musicians.
Since its inception in October 2024, Community Music has been dedicated to nurturing Australian talent and fostering their international growth. With a team that includes industry professionals like Product Development Manager Will Cuming and Vice President Francesca Caldara, the platform has already made significant strides in promoting artists such as Ocean Alley, Pete Murray, and Maddy Jane.
The launch of the Publishing And Sync arm marks a pivotal moment for Community Music, signaling its expanded support for artists across all aspects of the music industry. By providing services encompassing management, recording, distribution, and touring, the platform aims to create a conducive environment for artists to thrive independently. This strategic expansion reflects the evolving landscape of music rights management and the increasing demand for comprehensive artist support services.
Government funding through Music Australia and Creative Australia has played a role in supporting Community Music’s initiatives, underscoring the broader industry recognition of the platform’s contribution to the music ecosystem. As the company continues to grow and evolve, its commitment to empowering independent artists remains at the core of its mission, with Kelly’s appointment as General Manager further solidifying its position as a leading player in the music rights management space.
