The Billboard 2025 Indie Power Players list is out today and Symphonic’s CEO, Jorge Brea, and Chief Creative Officer, Randall Foster, are featured in the Labels & Distributors Category.

While layoffs and consolidation have been common in the music business in recent years, Symphonic Distribution is expanding and hiring. “We have invested a great deal in our proprietary technology as well as in our people with a large investment operationally, but also through a recent push further expanding our A&R presence worldwide,” Brea says. In the last year, the Tampa, Fla.-based company invested in the Asia Pacific region, and Brea plans additional “boots on the ground” in more key territories by the end of the year.
