Why Publish With Us?

At Wildlight Publications, we believe publishing should be collaborative, transparent, and artist-focused.

Our goal is simple: to help composers share their work with the percussion community while maintaining a publishing experience built on trust, communication, and long-term partnership.

As a Wildlight artist, you can expect:

  • Competitive royalty rates that prioritize composer compensation
  • Clear and transparent communication throughout the publishing process
  • Access to tools and resources that help you stay informed about your catalog and sales
  • A team that actively advocates for and promotes the music we publish
  • A personalized onboarding experience designed to set your work up for success
