EXCLUSIVE: Lemon Tree Music Sign Perth Artist To Management Deal

Lemon Tree Music has expanded its strong roster, today announcing the signing of WA artist Riley Pearce on a management deal.

The news comes after the Perth songwriter also signed with UK's Free Trade Agency. 

"We are really excited to work with Riley and to continue to set up a global team around him," Lemon Tree said in a statement.

"He's a truly great young songwriter with it all ahead of him and we thrilled to be involved taking his brilliant songs to the world."

Riley added, "I'm excited about the prospect of working with Lemon Tree Music and looking forward to the next 12 months and adopting a more global approach to my music. 

"They've got a great roster of acts who also started out busking and there's a lot I respect about that."

Riley joins the Melbourne-based company's roster which already boasts the likes of Tash Sultana, Willow Beats, Pierce Brothers and Maddy Jane.

Meanwhile, Sultana is set to kick off her Australian headline run next week on the back of a string of sold-out US dates.

The Melbourne songwriter will head back overseas next year to take part in the South American Lollapalooza festival next year, joining a bill that boasts the likes of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam and The Killers.
