Episode: Music Ally Focus #53: Josh Empson, CEO of Tempo Music Investments – who has $1bn to buy music rights – talks buying catalogue; if music is undervalued; and long term ambitions for these investments.
Description: Josh Empson, CEO of Tempo Music Investments, joins Joe Sparrow to explain what it’s like to have a $1 billion-plus fund to invest in the purchase of music rights, and what these purchases mean for music and rightsholders. We are fascinated by this space, where huge sums change hands for ownership of songs – so we talked to Josh about how catalogues are chosen for purchasing, whether music is under- or over-valued at the moment, the long-term strategy of these investments, and what the impact might be on mid-tier songwriters and artists.
