Imagem Music, home to such talent as Phil Collins, Steve Robson, Jens Gad and Rebecca Jordan, has signed a worldwide, multi-year administration agreement with singer/songwriter Anna Nalick.
Anna's debut album, Wreck of the Day, has sold nearly 1 million units, and yielded her first radio hit, "Breathe (2AM)," which went 3x Platinum on the Billboard Top 100. "Breathe (2AM)" reached a whole new global audience when it was featured on a 2006 episode of Grey's Anatomy. "Catalyst" and "Wreck of the Day" have also been featured on that popular series, as has the latter track on One Tree Hill and Joan of Arcadia. Within the first year of her first album release, Nalick was named "AC Female Artist of the Year" at the New Music Awards. Winner of a prestigious ASCAP Pop Award, Nalick is currently at work on her new album.
Richard Stumpf, President of Imagem Music USA, commented: "Anna has a real gift. Her writing creates vivid scenes for the listener and her emotional delivery colors them in. She wrote her entire first album, which included the massive hit ‘Breathe (2AM).' We are thrilled that she has chosen Imagem as her publishing partner."
Upon signing, Nalick commented, "After years of searching for a soul mate, I believe I've finally found the right partner with whom to raise my song children."
