AWAL (an initialism of Artists Without a Label) is a global recording business that serves as an alternative to the traditional record label, offering deal structures that provide artists with the resources and expertise of a global label while allowing them to retain ownership and control of their music.
Since 2021, AWAL has been owned by Sony Music, following its acquisition from Kobalt Music Group for $430 million.
