UMPG is thrilled to partner with JARED and the AUDIO UP team, working together to discover and develop versatile songwriters who can create music for both these fan-favorite podcasts as well as contemporary hits.

GUTSTADT said, “I am delighted to partner with UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING in this one-of-a-kind endeavor. We see podcasting as a gateway to music discovery and the hit songs of the future. Our unique mix of music-based content unlocks amazing stories and music from some of the best artists in the business. Our secret sauce is a Tin Pan Alley model with fully integrated and original musical capabilities from within our walls. We’re excited to bring this to life and begin recruiting next-gen songwriters to plug and play within UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING and their greatest abilities alongside the power of AUDIO UP.
