\u201cWe are always looking for new opportunities to grow and develop the Mushroom Group\u2019s network of companies,\u201d said Gudinski in a statement. \u201cNeighboring rights is an intricate area of royalty collection that we\u2019ve wanted to move into and naturally complements our other businesses. We recognized it was important to have the specialist knowledge and experience required to service our clients properly, he added, calling Cotchin\u2019s expertise and understanding of neighboring rights \u201csecond to none.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I was approached by The Mushroom Group and witnessed their professionalism and ongoing determination to manage neighboring rights correctly, it made my decision to join forces an easy and obvious one,\u201d added Cotchin in the statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe launch Good Neighbour not as a start-up but as a leader in neighboring rights from day one,\u201d she continued. \u201cThe result of our combined interests and connections will enable us to extend our reach to more performers, without diluting the personal service we are famous for. We make a formidable team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Also joining the Good Neighbour team is Zoe Coverdale, who brings with her 12 years of experience managing Mushroom Music\u2019s international department.
