The roots of Chrysalis stretch back to a tiny flat in West London in 1967, when former university social secretaries, Chris Wright, aged 22, and Terry Ellis, aged 23, linked their flair for managing and booking bands to form the Ellis Wright Agency. The duo quickly established themselves as significant entertainment providers for British colleges and swiftly transferred to an office in London's West End. Among the duo's early management clients were blues rockers.
After a couple of experiences trying to release Ten Years After, Wright and Ellis began thinking in terms of their own label. In 1968, they signed a licensing deal with Island Records under the curcumstances that Wright and Ellis' acts log an agreed number of hits, then the pair would be awarded a label in their own right. The appropriate tally was logged within a year, and a new independent record company - Chrysalis, an amalgam of Wright's first name and Ellis's last - was born.
In July 2007, Chrysalis Radio was sold to Global Radio for £170m, leaving Chrysalis as a focused music business. Chrysalis now operates a successful international music publishing operation, the Echo Label, an 'incubator' record label for artists signed to our music publishing division and Lasgo Chrysalis, an international wholesale distribution business.
Chrysalis Radio is the 3rd largest operator in the commercial radio market in the UK, with 55.2m listening hours. They operate three well established and highly regarded radio brands: Heart, LBC, Galaxy as well as a newer, digital-only brand, The Arrow.
