Xposure Music Secures $42.5 Million in New Funding Round

Montreal-headquartered Xposure Music, the financing and investment platform for independent artists, has raised $42.5 million in debt and equity funding.

The funding:

• Includes debt financing from Andalusian Credit Partners and equity participation from select family offices and private investors.

• This pushes Xposure Music’s total capital raised past the $50 million mark.

The goal:

• Xposure Music assists independent artists with financing via its proprietary underwriting and valuation platform, which allows artists to access financing on their catalog, gain exposure to their marketing programs, and connect with the company’s network of A&Rs, managers and producers.

• The company also deals in straight IP buyouts (covering whole or partial catalogs).

• As per its media release, Xposure plans to “scale its efforts, funding additional artists and acquiring catalogs at a larger volume.”

• In the past 18 months Xposure has deployed funding to support nearly 100 artists.

• The company recently partnered with independent music distribution platform Too Lost.

What they said:

• Gregory Walfish, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Xposure Music: “Independent artists should have access to the same level of financing and deal structures that were once limited to major stars. With this new capital and our underwriting technology, we are doubling down on our mission to be long-term partners for the next generation of independent artists.”
