Bicycle MusicSheer Publishing is excited to announce a African sub-publishing deal with Bicycle Music to represent all of their catalogues, which was previously spread out over a few South African based sub-publishers.

Founded in 1974, Bicycle Music holds an impressive catalogue which represents music from some of the world’s biggest names such as  Miriam Makeba, Michael Jackson, Billy Holiday, The Brand New Heavies, Seether, Cyndi Lauper, Dave Matthews Band, Marvin Hamlisch, to name a few.

Sheer Publishing had been working with Bicycle Music on a couple of their catalogues over the last few years. We were grateful to be asked to handle all of their amazing songs and songwriters as they consolidated their representation in sub-Saharan Africa. We love working with Bicycle Music – we believe Jake and Steve have a true vision for the Copyright Industries and we are proud to be one of their global partners,” comments David Alexander, Managing Director of Sheer Publishing
