Reservoir Signs Multi-Platinum-Selling Songwriter RuthAnne To A Worldwide Publishing Deal

Reservoir announces the signing of multi-Platinum-selling songwriter and pop recording artist RuthAnne to a worldwide publishing deal. The deal includes titles from RuthAnne's catalog of hits, plus future works.

Based in London, the Irish-born RuthAnne boasts a string of collaborations with some of the biggest names in pop music from One Direction to Britney Spears. Her chart topping co-writes with Spears ("Work B**ch"), Niall Horan ("Slow Hands"), and Martin Garrix and Bebe Rexha ("In the Name of Love") have amassed two billion streams between them and received Platinum or multi-Platinum certifications, while she also co-wrote breakthrough songs for One Direction, Westlife, and JoJo, among others. Moreover, her collaboration with JRY, "Pray" off Universal Pictures' Fifty Shades Darker soundtrack, on which she is also a featured vocalist, contributed to the album's Billboard 200 #1.

Also an accomplished performer, RuthAnne is set to launch her forthcoming debut album as a solo artist later this year. Effortlessly blending authentic songwriting with pop sensibilities, she celebrated the release of her latest single "Superman" just last month, with previous singles including "Liquid," "It Is What It Is," and "The Vow" each topping millions of streams worldwide. Meanwhile, on the road, she has shared stages with the likes of Alanis Morrissette and Hozier.

"I'm excited to welcome RuthAnne to the Reservoir family of extraordinary songwriters," said Reservoir EVP of Creative Donna Caseine. "From the hits that she's written with and for other artists to her own music, RuthAnne's songs will be played for years to come. We are honored to be her creative partner during this exciting time in her career."

"I am beyond happy to sign a publishing deal with Reservoir and join their amazing roster," added RuthAnne. "I have been a fan of what Donna and the entire Reservoir team have been doing in the industry for some time now, and I'm excited for all the amazing things to come from working together."
