Artists ‘Believe’ In TuneCore
• Independent DIY digital music distributor TuneCore and its parent company, Paris-based digital music distribution and artist development company, Believe, revealed that the ongoing “Signed By” program between the two companies has benefitted over 340 artists and labels around the world. Artists who release their music through TuneCore and are identified as rising stars, are eligible to be signed by Believe.
TuneCore serves artists (like Landy, pictured here) who are often at the beginning stages of their careers, managing many (if not all) aspects of their development themselves. When paired with Believe Label and Artist Solutions (L&AS), and Artist Services, all three divisions work in concert to best serve artists and labels at each stage of their development in the digital world. The Signed By program has thus far resulted in over 340 artists and labels moving from TuneCore up to Believe and its brands, including Nuclear Blast, Naïve, All Points, Groove Attack, PIVTL Projects and more.
Denis Ladegaillerie, Believe CEO stated, “Believe and TuneCore are artist-first, solution-driven digital music companies whose central tenet is to serve artists at all stages of their careers and development. Because of the symbiotic nature of our businesses, we are able to identify emerging talent early on through TuneCore and then further develop and support the artists journey with Believe L&AS and Artist Services. The acceleration of artists’ careers through our multi-faceted solution speaks to the success of this program.”
Andreea Gleeson, Co-head & Chief Revenue Officer of TuneCore, said, “As artists are building their careers, TuneCore provides tools and solutions for artists at scale, including our ground-breaking TuneCore Rewards program. When they start to gain traction, TuneCore is able to move the artist to the appropriate support system, whether that’s Believe L&AS, Artist Services or its house of brands. We’re the only digital music company who has a system like this in place, where artists work within one transparent ecosystem and maintain their masters and creative control throughout.”
