Written by Jon Stickler
New and unique record label www.mymajorcompany.co.uk launched in the UK on October 21st and within four days had raised £100,000 of fan investment for pop/rock act IvyRise. The British band have become the first UK fully fan funded act from a label that gives fans the opportunity to be a part of the music they love. www.mymajorcompany.co.uk's launch roster has now totaled a figure of £163,290 between them.
IvyRise are the perfect example as to why this new format really works. Overlooked by the current record label infrastructure, this incredibly hard working act have been championed by My Major Company’s open A&R’ing policy. The band have built an incredible fan base which has translated into this amazing level of investment.
My Major Company operates by signing acts, placing a sample of their music on www.mymajorcompany.co.uk as to whether the act will raise the £100,000 necessary to take things to the next level.
Unlike any other artist investment sites the total investment is not used for an unspecified or one-off purpose, fans have the ability to get involved in every stage in the development of THEIR act.
In France My Major Company has had incredible success. They have sold over 1 million albums, had a number 1 album, number 1 single and returned 118,000 Euros on one fans investment of 6,000 Euros.
