Aussie Label Dot Dash Lands Major International Deal

Australian label Dot Dash has today announced a new UK and Europe distribution deal with Proper Music Group. 

Proper will now look after the physical releases for Dot Dash artists including Gena Rose Bruce, Carla Geneve, Donny Benet and more in the territory. 

Dot Dash, which was launched in 2004, also looks after label services for the Courtney Barnett & Jen Cloher run Milk! Records.

"We are excited to be working with the team at Proper," said Dot Dash co-founders Steve Cross and Harvey Saward of the deal. 

"We are both 100% independent companies with no affiliation to major labels, Proper speak our language. As lifelong record collectors, we know their track record and know we can entrust them to get our releases into the right stores. We’d also like to thank Dan Nevin for his invaluable assistance in setting up this new arrangement.

"It’s a very exciting time for Dot Dash. Over the past year, Donny Benét has played more gigs in Europe than Australia. Gena Rose Bruce and Carla Geneve are attracting international interest and have both been invited to play SXSW in 2020. Everything seems to be pointing in the right direction and this new partnership with Proper comes at exactly the right time."

"Dot Dash has a brilliant roster, many of whom are making serious waves in the UK and Europe," added Proper Music Group's managing director Drew Hill. 

"We really connect with their independent ethos and, with our strong retail connections and their great music, we can’t wait to watch this popularity flourish."
