Grammy-winning, UK-based independent publisher BDi Music has signed Aoife McCann, aka Æ MAK, along with collaborator Daniel McIntyre, aka Lullahush, to an exclusive worldwide publishing deal.
Æ MAK was the first artist chosen for Festival Republic’s ReBalance Programme in the UK – a PRS Foundation supported initiative launched in 2018 to support and promote female led bands and solo artists.
Last year, she supported Django Django, Warpaint and tune-yards, performed sold out Irish headliners and played festivals across the UK including The Great Escape, Latitude, Liverpool Sound City, Electric Picnic, Body&Soul and more.
Æ MAK will appear at this year’s Eurosonic, playing the Praedinius Gymnasium on Friday, January 18.
In 2018, Æ MAK released three single projects of experimental art pop – Glow, Love Flush and Too Sad To Sing – which received support from the likes of BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio X, Earmilk and The Line Of Best Fit.
“Aoife and Daniel are both incredibly creative artists and writers, and they are thriving in this collaboration. 2019 is going to be a great year for them.”
