DEALS
Independent music investment firm Exceleration Music has announced a “strategic financial alliance” with indie label Mom+Pop Music, which will allow the record company to expand and sign new artists. “We chose this path because it provides financial tools enabling us to maintain our self-sufficiency”, says label co-owner Thaddeus Rudd. “We’ve created a hybrid in today’s market, offering artistic controls and a boutique service, pairing it with the power and reach of a larger system. This expansion is a bet on our artists, our staff and our collective future”.
