DRT Entertainment is a New York City based independent record label founded in 2003 by Derek Shulman, Ron Urban and Theodore "Ted" Green.
Billing itself as a "home for former major-label artists with an established fan base". The company recently signed a U.S. distribution deal with Universal Music Group's Fontana Distribution. DRT is also distributed by Universal Music Canada and a variety of companies in the rest of the world including Pinnacle in the United Kingdom and JVC Records in Japan.
