Lordkay.
Est. 2014About

Built by operators for the next decade of music.

Lordkay was founded in London in 2014 by a small group of managers, engineers and publishing veterans tired of a music industry that under-served the artists it needed.

01 — Belief

An independent artist should not have to trade ownership for a career. With the right infrastructure — production, distribution, publishing, promotion — they can build both.

02 — Principles

Artists own what they make

Masters, copyrights, brand — the artist is always the owner.

Written plans, honest reports

Every engagement begins with a written plan and ends with a written report.

Long over loud

We prefer a decade-long partnership to a viral quarter.

Craft first

Music that competes on quality outlasts every marketing tactic.

04 — In their words

“Lordkay took my catalog and turned it into a business. Within eighteen months I owned my masters, my publishing was collecting properly, and I was headlining the rooms I used to open.”

AURELIA · Electronic Artist

“The most complete music partner I have worked with in twenty years. They understand the art and the paperwork with equal seriousness.”

Marcus Vane · Multi-Platinum Songwriter

“They rebuilt my launch strategy in a week and delivered our biggest release of all time three months later. Zero drama, all execution.”

MAVE · Recording Artist

Come and build something that lasts.
