So pleased to show off Dylan’s placement in this wonderful Destination Canada spot! I can dig it,… can ya?!

No one does whirlwind quite like RHR (looking at you JB), and we’re about to take off on a couple very exciting trips! TO friends and friends visiting, we will be at CMW tomorrow to Sunday morning – get at us if you haven’t done so already:) we love grabbing food and drinks. We will also be in Saint John for East Coast Music Week – catching up with friends, attending conference sessions and of course, enjoying the evening’s festivities.

Hope to see new and old friends alike over the coming week!

Oh, right – that Coversion logo? 🙂 That’s some news for another day.

See ya!

Our latest addition to the RHR team brings Rolling Stone recognized pop artist Henry Hall on board! Hall’s music is fun, catchy and clever drawing humour from his own personal experiences and doesn’t shy away from belting it out. Hall’s inherent quirkiness fits right in with us at Rocking Horse Road and we’re stoked to have such a cool industry shaker on board. He attributes a lot of his sound to the likes of The Weeknd and Paul McCartney, who like Hall are not afraid to sing in a higher octave. Are we ever thankful for that! He has already scored a really cool sync – which we’re not sure we can talk about yet, so we’re just going to keep you on your toes until we’re ready to announce.

Welcome to the fam Henry – we’re happy to have you!

Check out Hall’s video for his song “Company” off his latest EP My Friends Don’t Like Me below!

“As one upbeat, off-kilter track bleeds into another, there’s a sense of unabashed, mood-lifting, retro goodness that feels boldly infectious” – Lauren McKinney, The Wild Honey Pie

We’ve been waiting patiently waiting to let all of you in on what we’ve have been working on these past few months and well… Today is the day! Read below to get the detailed release on our new Pre-cleared Music Library.

ROCKING HORSE ROAD’S PRE-CLEARED MUSIC LIBRARY LAUNCHES TODAY

(February 7, 2017 – Halifax, NS). Rocking Horse Road Productions (RHR), a rapidly expanding multi-service music licensing house operating out of LA, London, and Halifax today announces the launch of its new online PRE-CLEARED MUSIC LIBRARY – an easily searchable, one-stop shop offering pre-cleared click-through licenses for your creative projects.

www.rockinghorseroad.sourceaudio.com

The wide range of tracks each have royalty-free pre-set rates for regional, national, and worldwide use in perpetuity. BROWSING IS WELCOMED – NO NEED TO SIGN IN until you want to purchase.

Our roster of quality artists and composers covers everything from hip-hop to bebop, and includes Canadian singer-songwriter / composer, Jim Guthrie, and three-time Emmy award winner Jeff Whitcher.

Plus, you can sound good, do good, and feel good as our Charity Program and tie-in with Unison Benevolent Fund (http://unisonfund.ca) meaning every sync gives back.

Rocking Horse Road Productions is a Canadian multi-service music licensing house offering sync licensing, publishing, and music clearance services.  Established in December 2012 in Halifax, NS, the company now has satellite offices in Los Angeles, CA and London, UK markets.

With our newest addition to the RHR family things have gotten a little quirkier – in the best way possible. UK lads The Helmholtz Resonators have joined forces with us at Rocking Horse Road to share their unique take on music and life with the rest of the world. Heavily inspired by the ethos behind concept albums, the band have created a repertoire of songs as eccentric as their imagine – drawing influences from The Kinks, LCD Soundsystem and other music industry game changers. Their most recent album “The Mystery of Woolley Mountain” was released as not only a digital album, but also a video game and an interactive song e-book. These guys bring something new to the table and after all – variety is the spice of life, right?

Welcome to the team guys, we’re excited to have you on board!

So most of you have probably heard of a little movie that hit theatres recently titled Moonlight – you know, the 2017 Golden Globe winner for Best Motion Picture – Drama? The movie starring Mahershala Ali which has created a ton of Oscar buzz? Now that you’re up to speed we can excitedly tell you that the Ad running on tv and online promoting the film features a composition written by RHR Composer Jeremiah Pena and was cleared through RHR!

Check out the trailer below and give a big hoorah for the team at RHR – we told you 2017 was going to be our year.

“It was done with such incredible understanding. It was so human.” – Helen Mirren on Moonlight

“From first shot to last, Moonlight is about as beautiful a movie as you are ever likely to see. The colors are rich and luminous. The music — hip-hop, R&B, astute classical selections and Nicholas Britell’s subtle score — is both surprising and perfect.”- A.O. Scott, The New York Times

“I cannot recommend this film enough. Every idea, every theme, every emotion you could possibly feel as a human being you feel on screen.” – Trevor Noah, Television Host

“Moonlight offers a broad audience the chance to see that humanity, love, and affection exist inside—and, in fact, are freed within—the intimate realms of queerness, Blackness, and carcerality.” Steven Thrasher, Esquire

You may have seen this on TV and thought ‘who is that badass singer’? Well, it’s our very own Jon Epworth! Thanks to our friends Steve and the team at SOHO Music Group in London and for making this happen! Not only did Jon lend his vocal, but he composed and mixed this track before work one morning. That’s a very Jon Epworth thing to do.

This has been airing in Europe since April or so. Since November it’s come to North America. So, now… it’s evvvvvvverywhere! Go team, go!
