One of Sinatra’s principles is that each artist has full creative freedom and at some point complete ownership of their work, including publishing rights, this is the reason for most early Reprise artists (Dean Martin, Jimi Hendrix) are currently distributed through other labels.
Today, in addition to Young, it is home to such artists as, Oasis, Michael Buble, My chemical Romance, Eric Clapton. Reprise is also the North American label for British band Depeche Mode.
