Signed: Cara Delevigne to Release Debut Album on Warner Records; UTA Inks Jay Wheeler, The Warning
Other recent artist signings include Jo Dee Messina, Omar Camacho, Way Dynamic, Belles and Julia Jacklin.
Cara Delevingne signed with Warner Records and released the songs “I Forgot” and “Out of My Head.” She’ll release her debut album this summer.
“Music was always that dream I had, but never believed I would get the opportunity to create,” said Delevingne of her new music. “Writing ‘I Forgot’ felt like a rebirth for me and ‘Out of my Head’ was like going to therapy. Everything has felt like it’s led up to this point and I can’t wait for everyone to experience it.”
Aaron Bay-Schuck, CEO and co-chairman of Warner Records Group, added, “I didn’t know what to expect hearing this music for the first time, but it surprised me in the best possible way. It’s an incredibly exciting and ambitious offering. It takes a lot of courage to be as vulnerable as Cara is on these songs, and she masterfully intertwines so many different sonic influences in a way that is both unexpected and risky, yet digestible. We truly couldn’t be happier to have Cara join the Warner Records family.”
Over the years, Delevingne has made intermittent excursions into music, including writing a song for Valerian, a 2017 sci-fi film directed by Luc Besson in which she starred. She was also featured in the Cabaret revival on the West End and has appeared on albums including Fiona Apple’s Fetch the Bolt Cutters, St. Vincent’s Masseduction and Dijon’s Baby.
Delevingne is set to play shows in Europe, the U.K. and the U.S. this summer, including the festivals All Things Go NYC and Primavera Sound editions in Barcelona, Buenos Aires and São Paulo.
