Range Media Partners’ Range Music, distributed through Capitol Music Group and Virgin Music’s label services, signs Disney Channel alum Meg Donnelly.Range Music, the label arm of Range Media Partners, which is distributed through Capitol Music Group and Virgin Music & Artist Label Services, announces the signing of Disney Channel alum Meg Donnelly. Donnelly is best known for her role in “High School Musical: The Musical: The Series,” and the original movie “Zombies,” the latter of which she served as an executive producer.

The signing was led by Range Music partner Jared Cotter, who was recently named Billboard’s Executive of the Week for his work co-managing breakout star Shaboozey, his co-writer Sean Cook, and Paul Russell, who is responsible for the hit, “Lil Boo Thang.”

Donnelly, who is working on new music, has just released her latest single, “by my heart,” marking her first release with Range Music. In 2018, she was named Radio Disney’s NBT (Next Big Thing), putting her on the map internationally. She has since performed alongside artists like The Jonas Brothers, Avril Lavigne, Alessia Cara, and most recently opened for Doja Cat.

Donnelly’s latest release, the single “title,” with global charting producer Tenroc, laid the foundation for what fans can expect next in her career. In collaboration with creative director Max Pham, who has toured with and choreographed for A-list artists, Donnelly has been able to “bring her passion for dance, music, and her NYC roots to life.”

In addition to her work as a musician and actress, Donnelly is passionate about mental health awareness, having experienced anxiety from a young age. She has partnered with various non-profit organizations and hospitals, including the Children’s Health Fund and Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals as an ambassador. By sharing her own experiences, tips, and resources, she hopes that kids and young adults feel more supported in their journeys with mental health.“We chose Range because of their incredible creative team and what they’ve been able to build. It feels really special,” says Kasual Kas, Donnelly’s manager at Big Wins Only. “Their entire staff felt young, hungry, and really understood the long-term vision for Meg as an artist, so it was an easy decision for us. On the business side, Range was also extremely flexible and understood that deals are structured differently now for artists, and they made sure to champion ownership. We were in talks with many labels, but this one truly felt like a partnership, and that’s what we always wanted.”

“Meg is an undeniable superstar who is so certain in her vision and was willing to hold out until the right partner came along. For Meg, that partner was Range,” added Kristina Mazzola, also from Donnelly’s management team at Big Wins Only. “After the release of ‘title,’ it was clear Range truly understood the path Meg is carving out for herself. The sky’s the limit for Meg, and I am excited for the world to experience her as an artist.”

“I’ve admired Meg’s talent and tenacity for years, and I’m thrilled to finally have the opportunity to work with her,” concludes Cotter. “She is a genre-melding artist that has had multi-format success, and Range Music is uniquely positioned to help her reach superstar status. We’re very much looking forward to being a part of her journey to the top.”
