Parker is popular as the frontman and brainchild behind the Australian psych-rock band Tame Impala. Parker wrote, produced, mixed, sung and performed across every song on Tame Impala's acclaimed albums Innerspeaker, Lonerism, Currents and their latest album The Slow Rush.
"The idea of passing on ownership of my songs is one that I don't think about very lightly, at all," Parker said. "They are the fruit of my blood, sweat and creativity over all the years I've been a recording artist and songwriter so far."
"I have a lot of love and trust for the Sony publishing family and have only had great experiences with Damian Trotter and the rest of the gang worldwide," he added. "I don't think my songs could be in any safer hands than Sony's, and I'm excited for the future and happy I can keep working with them on whatever the future brings."
Chairman & CEO, Sony Music Publishing Jon Platt said, "I have always admired Kevin Parker and I believe he is one of the most versatile songwriters of our time. Kevin has built a catalog of songs with incredible range and enduring power, and he has always stayed true to his vision. It is a privilege to represent his music, and we are committed to broadening his legacy of success."
