"Thomas co-wrote and co-produced the Teddy Swims track 'Are You Even Real feat. GIVĒON,' which debuted in January as the #1 song globally on Spotify. The track is currently #1 at Urban/R&B, #5 at Rhythmic, and #10 at Urban radio," according to a statement.

"Peter Thomas is a Los Angeles-based producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist with over two billion streams on Spotify across his catalog. He recently collaborated on six tracks on the Sofi Tukker album BREAD (“Bread,” “Throw Some Ass,” “Hey Homie,” “Spiral,” “Cafuné” with Channel Tres, and “Perfect Someone”). Thomas’ past credits include COIN’s Top 10 Alternative Radio hit “Talk Too Much” and P!nk’s chart-topping single “Walk Me Home,” which reached #1 on Billboard’s Adult Pop and Adult Contemporary charts."

“Tyler and Mark have built an incredible team at Position—people who know how to support creative work with strategy. I felt aligned with Sam and Shannon from day one, and I’m excited about what we’ll build together,” says Thomas.

Thomas is managed by Rosabelle Eales of Overall MGMT.

"From my very first meeting with the A&R team at Position, it was clear this was the right home for Peter Thomas. He’s a rare talent with an incredible ability to craft timeless, genre-blending music, and Position immediately understood his larger vision. Shannon and Sam are outstanding publishers, and Mark and Tyler have been incredible strategic partners. We’re excited to step into this next chapter together and build something truly special," says Eales.

"Peter Thomas joins a Position Music publishing roster that includes Tinashe, Cannons, Audien, Polyphia, John “Feldy” Feldmann, Jack LaFrantz, ¿Téo?, Zach Skelton, Maya K, Joe Kearns, Austin Powerz, Brandyn Burnette, Layto, Dru “Falconry” DeCaro, Evalyn, Judah & the Lion, Alex “A-Bomb” Fernandez, KANNER, No Love For The Middle Child, Erik Ron, NoMBe, Yonatan Watts, RJ Pasin, and more," they say.

“Peter has built such an incredible world around himself — of strategic partners, creatives, and artists — I’m excited to step into it and be a part of it,” says Sam Sklar, VP of A&R at Position Music. “It’s a rare opportunity to work with a creative who not only has profound musical talent, but also understands humans on such a deep level. He has a vision for himself and for others. I’m consistently impressed with the realms of his talent and his mind.”

"Peter Thomas is a rare gem,” says Shannon Corsi, A&R at Position Music. “His emotional intuition and sharp intellect make him a unique force in any room. He’s meticulous without losing sight of the big picture; go-with-the-flow yet three steps ahead; a seasoned professional yet hungry and humble. Couldn’t be more excited for what’s ahead."
