Julie Snyder is joining the company as producer-at-large.
Music podcast label Signal Co. No1 is growing its ranks with the recruitment of Serial and S-Town producer Julie Snyder, plus a slate of new podcasts to come hosted by Sigur Rós, Bethany Cosentino and Ziggy Marley.
This podcast label just launched in January. Snyder states, “I genuinely believe Signal are building a foundation for a great company,” she adds in a press release. “They are creating podcasts that are creative, boundary-pushing and artful.”
Kevin Wortis is heading this startup as founder and CEO. He has also founded World’s Fair label group and is a former agent and manager for The Cure, Rob Zombie, Pretty Lights, Amanda Palmer and David Lynch.
Signal describes itself as “a podcast label dedicated exclusively to music culture.” The company recently partnered with Pixies for its first original release, Past is Prologue, a 12-part documentary podcast that follows the making of the band’s upcoming album. The series kicks off with host Tony Fletcher on June 27 and will debut a new segment each week leading up to the album’s release in September 2019.
