KENNY G REUPS AT ARISTA

Highly popular instrumentalist Kenny G has entered into a new long-term agreement with Arista Records.

In conjunction with the new contract the artist has signed an exclusive, long-term music administration deal for North America with publisher BMG Songs, whereby BMG Songs will administer Kenny G's entire back catalog as well as all future works. Randall Wixen in North America previously published him.

"Kenny G is a core artist whose presence on the Arista roster defines the long-term commitment that this label is all about," said Antonio "L.A." Reid, President/CEO, Arista Records. "He has enjoyed spectacular success for more than a decade and these two new deals recognize his tremendous creativity, imagination and growth. Now, if I could just get him to lose those Jheri curls."
