"I cannot wait to start working with Alex and Matt and bringing the artists and music from Rainbow Valley to Australia and the world.”
Dan Rosen has announced his first venture as the President of Warner Music Australasia (WMA), today confirming new joint venture and label, Rainbow Valley Records - the brainchild of Aussie heavyweight Matt Corby and long-time producer, Alex Henriksson.
Having already worked with the likes of Jarryd James, Budjerah and Tia Gostelow, Corby and Henriksson will now work to "sign artists across multiple genres and diverse backgrounds" on the Rainbow Valley roster.
“I’m pumped to step into a different role in the industry," Corby said.
"To assist new and established artists from the perspective on of an artist. I’ve learned a lot over the last decade and am looking forward to bringing my knowledge and experience to the table for this new company.
"I’m excited to share the music we have already been a part of and will continue to foster with a diverse crew of people, hopefully, for years to come.”
Henriksson added, "I am excited to start working alongside this amazing team curating and facilitating a range of super special artists from our country and around the world.

"This is an opportunity I could only dream about and to see it coming to life makes me truly grateful.”
Rosen, who announced his departure from ARIA after a decade-long run late last year, said he is "thrilled" to work with Corby and Henriksson at Warner.
"It is a new era for WMA, and Rainbow Valley Records is emblematic of what will stand for as a company - putting great music and brilliant creativity at the heart of everything we do," he said.
