Palaver Music

Palaver Press is a small-run sound & text publishing company founded by Jeremy Young (3) and Catherine Métayer. As a record label, its current function is to publish Young's own sound works, as well as work by related cohorts on a manageable scale, marketing to and collaborating primarily with like-minded members of the independent experimental sound and music publishing community. As a print publishing company, Palaver Press serves to bring to market the work of artists that bridge visual art and text with sound. Palaver is interested in fostering a culture of collaboration in publishing by using the curatorial platform as a way of bringing new works to life. We will soon launch a brand new audio-literature project branch, featuring digital audiobook publications of contemporary literature bridging together the work of emerging independent authors and composers. The mission of this project first and foremost is to double the audience exposure of participating artists by collaboratively combining their work across disciplines.
