RoyFi and Unchained Music Team up to Give More Artists Access to Capital

RoyFi, the most artist-friendly music financing service in the business, is partnering with Unchained Music, the distribution and artist services company that harnesses defi to give artists 100% royalties, to provide advances on artist royalties. It’s a match that will help savvy creators earn more and invest more in themselves and their projects. 

“Our mission is to give more power to creatives by giving them access to affordable capital, at terms that make business sense. Access to capital means more sustainable music careers,” explains Peter Harvey of RoyFi. “Unchained Music and RoyFi make a great team, as we share a deep commitment to thoughtful financial innovation that lets artists make more of their work with fewer fees, hassles, and bottlenecks.”

The partnership lets artists distributed by Unchained Music get advances on future recording-related royalties to fund their next big thing. These advances can be small boosts to an artist’s cashflow ($250), or big enough to build a new studio or front a major tour. RoyFi has the lowest rates in the industry, and with Unchained Music’s unique 100% free distribution, this results in rights holders recouping their advances far faster, all without handing over rights or control.

“We’re building a new model for artist-first services and we’re thrilled to add a helpful financial service component to the innovative distribution, promotion, and surrounding tools that we’re launching,” says Matt Waters, CEO of Unchained Music. “RoyFi is the perfect partner to help us help our creatives. They’ve done enough deals to have perfected the art of artist-friendly advances, while staying innovative and forward thinking, just as we are.”
