OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder has signed a global publishing deal with Runner Music, the company he co-founded, marking a rare instance of a prominent songwriter signing with their own publishing company.

Tedder's recent achievements include producing hits for Tate McRae ("Greedy," "Exes," "It's Ok, I'm Ok," "Sports Car"), and the Grammy-winning Beyoncé-Miley Cyrus collaboration "II Most Wanted." He also collaborated with David Guetta on "I Don't Wanna Wait" and worked with Guetta and Jelly Roll on "Run It" for Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

Runner Music has experienced significant success recently, with notable achievements including:

• Bad Bunny's "DtMF" reaching No. 2 on Billboard Hot 100
• Grant Boutin's collaboration on Tate McRae's "Sports Car" and seven other tracks
• Recent signings of Del Water Gap, Ben Johnson, and Alex O'Shaughnessy

"Signing to Runner feels like the culmination of a dream I've had for years," said Tedder. "With Amanda Hill, Andrew Sparkler, and the team they've assembled, I've got a community of music-obsessed operators that share the same vision, passion, and relentless drive."

Amanda Hill, Co-Chief Creative Officer of Runner, expressed pride in the company's achievements, while CEO Andrew Sparkler highlighted the exceptional momentum at Runner and their commitment to nurturing both emerging and established songwriters.
