Parlophone

Multinational label.
Label Code: [b]LC 0299 / LC 00299[/b]
[b]Please note, many Parlophone issues also carry an EMI logo. This is not a label and EMI should not be added as a label, it instead indicates that Parlophone was part of the EMI Group.[/b]

Parlophone is an anglicization of the German [l=Parlophon] label, registered as a trademark in 1902 by Max Straus and Heinrich Zuntz of [b]Salon Kinematograph Co. GmbH[/b], later merged into [l=Carl Lindström A.-G.]. The first Parlophon records are pressed in 1910. 

By 1923, Parlophone proper appears in London administered by English Lindström branch known as [l311921],  Parlophon records were pressed in London and sold locally. By 1926 extended operations extended to press for export in Australia (#cat A) until the australian factory [l=Parlophone Co. Ltd.] was created somewhere the next year. These companies were subsequently taken over by [l97841] in 1927, following its acquisition of [l275192] in 1926, thus becoming a constituent part of [l293204] (EMI) when that company merged with [l253617] in 1931.

The label largely operated as a Jazz and Novelty label until manager, [a=George Martin], signed the [a=The Beatles] in 1962. As a result of its subsequent success and profile, the label was earmarked for phasing out in 1973 in favour of [l=EMI] (the label), however the parlophone imprint continued to be used by registered trademark owner [l=EMI Records Ltd.] and affiliated companies.

In September 2012 following the acquisition of [l1330982]'s US and Asian interests by [l=Universal Music Group], Parlophone and the former EMI Records Ltd. were merged as the [l806790] (PLG Holdco Ltd.) and spun off to be sold. 

They were sold to [l=Warner Music Group] in March 2013.
The Parlophone label is now owned by [l=Parlophone Records Ltd.], the re-named EMI Records Ltd., itself a subsidiary of [l=Warner Music International].

The Beatles were not part of the Parlophone Label Group and their catalogue was acquired by [l=Universal].

<i>From The Valley</i> features an impressive group of collaborators, including acclaimed producer BJ Burton [Bon Iver, Soccer Mommy, Low], Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon, Tommy King [HAIM, The Killers, Vampire Weekend], A.G. Cook [Charli XCX, Jonsi, Beyoncé] and more. Ilsey narrates each of the album’s 10 tracks with deliberate care across breezy Laurel Canyon rock and sparse pop ballads, thanks to a tender, empathetic voice full of hard-fought wisdom.

In June, Variety exclusively announced Ilsey’s signing to Elektra and announced the arrival of her debut record. The album was heralded by early singles “Yellow Roses,” “No California,” and “Heart of Gold (with Bon Iver).” “No California,” a 1970s-inspired track about a once-idyllic place turned sour, was praised by UPROXX for its “folksy, carefree energy.”

“Heart of Gold (with Bon Iver),” a hazy, evocative cover of the Neil Young classic, was produced, mixed, and engineered by acclaimed producer BJ Burton. The track arrived to critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, The FADER, Stereogum, Spin and more, with Billboard raving, “…there’s a fullness to Ilsey’s rendition — and with the slightly faster pacing, the ongoing search for that illusive heart of gold sounds more urgent than before.” The track marked the second collaboration between Ilsey and Bon Iver – the artist also contributed feature vocals to Big Red Machine’s single “Mimi” in 2021 (the collaborative project of Justin Vernon + The National’s Aaron Dessner).

Born and raised in the shadow of Laurel Canyon, Ilsey grew up surrounded by music. She honed her songwriting ear listening to Motown and bands like The Beatles and The Pretenders, but also began to explore the music of Laurel Canyon, like Eagles, Joni Mitchell and Fleetwood Mac. As a teenager, she found herself gravitating toward songwriters like Nick Drake and Ben Harper and learned how to sing harmonies listening to Patty Griffin.

After writing songs alone in her bedroom at age 15, she has since made her mark as a 2x Grammy-nominated songwriter, writing for the likes of Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Kacey Musgraves, The 1975, Shawn Mendes, Panic! At The Disco and more.
