The Grammy and Ivor Novello nominee's discography also includes releases from Declan McKenna, Paris Texas, Biig Piig, Danielle Ponder, Tei Shi, Cailin Russo, as well as The Marías’ acclaimed side-project Not For Radio, of which he is a member.
“I am so pleased that, with OTM, we have extended our working relationship with Luca," said Felix Canetty-Clarke, VP, commercial & A&R strategy (UK) and A&R research (UK & International), Sony Music Publishing. "He is so ambitious with what he wants to achieve and having already delivered so much wonderful music, I look forward to seeing what’s possible in this next chapter together."

OTM CEO and founder Alex Sheridan said, “OTM are thrilled to have extended our deal with Gianluca. He was the first signing we made to our JV with Sony Music Publishing and to see his incredible growth, from a prodigiously talented young writer-producer, to the force he is today with No.1 records in the UK, Australia and No.7 in the US, shows why we can all be so proud of the past but also very excited for the future. Thanks for the ongoing, incredible support of SMP.”
As well as winning the 2021 Mercury Prize, Collapsed In Sunbeams won the MOBO Award for Album Of The Year and received a Grammy and BRITs nominations, while the track Black Dog was nominated for Best Song Musically And Lyrically at the Ivor Novello Awards.
"It was a no brainer to extend my working relationship with OTM and Sony," said Buccellati. "Alex, Felix and the team I’ve nurtured a relationship with through my first term feel like family.”
Buccellati is managed by Rene Symonds and Jay Mighall at Accent Music.
