LyricFind Expands Global Footprint

By FYI Staff

Canadian company LyricFind has opened offices in Morocco and Vietnam.

These new offices are the latest in several moves to expand the company’s global footprint as the leading source of licensed lyrics.


 “LyricFind’s goal has been to expand and diversify our lyric coverage across the world and be able to service as many territories as possible,” says Darryl Ballantyne, Founder & CEO at LyricFind, “and our new offices in Vietnam and Morocco are the next logical steps toward that goal. LyricFind’s global expertise and extensive catalogue of lyrics make us natural partners for the music streaming services and licensing organizations that are coming into their own in markets across the world.”

At LyricFind’s offices in Vietnam, a local team covers Thai, Vietnamese, Tagalog, Bahasa, and Malay language lyrics. LyricFind recently inked a deal with MCT, Thailand’s collective rights management association, to license lyrics by Thai artists. The newest LyricFind office in Tangier, Morocco, is home to a local team covering Arabic and Turkish languages.

LyricFind takes international business savvy and linguistic expertise seriously. In 2018, LyricFind retained expert regional consultants in Japan, Germany, and Brazil to assist the publishing team in acquiring new licensing partnerships. LyricFind also established partnerships with important publishing and PRO players on two continents: Capasso, which covers 38 countries in sub-Saharan Africa, and UBC in Brazil.

“We’re proud of the expansion we’ve made into markets in the Middle East and North Africa, Latin and South America, and Asia,” explains Ballantyne, “Expansion into different territories expands our lyric coverage and makes LyricFind an even more trusted name in the music industry.”

‘I Love You Guys a Little Bit Extra’: 7 Best Moments From Tate McRae at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena

Playing one of the country's biggest arenas, the Canadian pop star owned the stage at the first of two sold-out shows in Toronto.

Tate McRae is having another chart-topping year.

Her third album, 2025’s So Close To What, peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart. After "Greedy" topped the Billboard Hot 100 in 2024, she now has three songs actively charting on the Canadian Hot 100, including “Sports Car,” “Just Keep Watching,” from the F1 soundtrack and “What I Want,” a duet with country star Morgan Wallen. Last week, she topped Spotify’s Canadian Global Impact List, which highlights the Canadian artists whose songs are most listened to outside of their home countries.
