Core represents composers, bands and singer/songwriters who create original score and original songs for film, television and interactive media. We also represent a growing catalogue of licensable songs and specialty music from international labels and independent recording artists.
Originally formed in 2007 as "TheCCA" (The Canadian Composers Agency), the company was founded by Ari Wise, himself a 20-year film scoring veteran. With his strong connection to both the film scoring community and the film and television industry, TheCCA attracted great talent and quickly became the largest agency of it's kind in Canada. Currently, Core represents 20 original score artists in Vancouver, Toronto, Los Angeles, Montréal, Calgary, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Halifax, Austin, San Francisco, Boston and Baton Rouge.
Responding to its growing international profile and the need to provide both licensing and original score, the company expanded and re-launched in the fall of 2010 as "Core Music Agency".
Why "Core"? Because we believe in the inherent power of music, and that the right music is at the very center of every story. Music is an integral part of every moving picture narrative and we use our passion and expertise to help you find the right fit.
