Your streams are already proving what your music is worth. Through our catalog funding partner, Roots Music Group can help qualifying independent artists get an upfront advance on their catalog, based on real streaming data, while keeping ownership of their music.
Most independent artists are sitting on an asset they can't spend. Every month, your catalog earns a little at a time, while the video you need, the rollout you planned, and the tour you want all wait.
Catalog funding changes the timeline. Instead of waiting years for streaming income to trickle in, qualifying artists can receive an advance up front, backed by the performance of the music they've already released. The advance is recouped from streaming income over the agreed term, not by giving up your masters.
RMG handles the introduction. We submit you to our funding partner, get you set up with an artist ID, and help you understand the offer that comes back, so you can make the move that's right for your career. Pair it with our artist development services and put that capital to work.

We submit you to our funding partner and set you up with your own artist ID.
Your streaming data and distributor reports are analyzed to build a catalog offer.
Review the terms, pick the structure that fits, and put the capital to work.
Catalog funding is built for artists with real, consistent listeners. Here's what it takes.
To be submitted for a catalog offer, you'll need:
Studio time, producers, features, mixing, and mastering for your next project.
Rollouts, content, ads, and PR that give releases a real shot.
Music videos, photo shoots, and a brand that looks the part.
Shows, travel, and merch that build fans city by city.
No. The funding is an advance against your future streaming income, not a sale of your music. Terms vary by offer, so always review the agreement carefully before you sign.
Offers are based on your streaming history and distributor reports, which are analyzed to estimate future earnings. The structure you choose, like term length and whether new music is included, also affects the amount.
The advance is recouped from your streaming income over the agreed term, as set out in your offer. Read every term closely and ask questions before signing.
Artificial streams are detected in the review process and will disqualify you. Only real, organic listeners count.
No. Any independent artist who meets the requirements can request an offer through RMG. If you want more support, explore our services or ways to work with us.
If you have 10,000+ real monthly listeners and music earning on the major platforms, let's get you submitted and see what your catalog can do for your career.
Offers are provided by Roots Music Group's third-party funding partner and are subject to their review, eligibility requirements, and terms. Submission does not guarantee an offer. This page is general information, not financial or legal advice.
