Eric Clapton Catalog Moving To Surfdog

22 Sep 22

Eric Clapton’s catalog of studio albums recorded between 1983 and 2010 plus three live albums have, since first release, been licensed to Warner Records but are now moving to Surfdog Records on 1st October 2022.

Eric has enjoyed working with many individuals at Warner over the years, but with the greatly changed landscape of the music business and the increasing significance of streaming income, it has been decided to take a different approach to the marketing of the catalog.

In recent years, Eric has collaborated with and been impressed by Dave Kaplan and Surfdog on several new record releases in North America, including his last four studio albums, and is also now looking forward to working with Surfdog worldwide in relation to this catalog.
