Round Hill announces new deal with Big Loud Shirt
By Chris Cooke | Published on Tuesday 8 August 2023
Round Hill Music has done a new deal with Big Loud Shirt Industries, the country music publisher that it first partnered with in 2014. The new deal brings Round Hill’s stake in the Big Loud Shirt catalogue up to 100%, and also secures it a 50% share of the writer income streams of the publisher’s founder, country music songwriter Craig Wiseman.
Says Round Hill CEO Josh Gruss: “Craig Wiseman and his publishing company Big Loud Shirt have produced some of the highest profile, most recognisable and enduring country music hits of the last three decades. We have a terrific working relationship with Craig, who we have known for many years, and are deeply familiar with these songs”.
“This investment not only enables us to further increase Round Hill Music’s exposure to the fast growing country music genre”, he goes on, “but also provides an exciting opportunity for us to leverage our in-house platform to manage these incredible songs, maximising their income streams and further growing their value”.
Wiseman adds: “I have known and been working with Round Hill for a decade and I’m THRILLED to be expanding our relationship by sharing these incredible pieces of art with them. I know they will manage these songs carefully and effectively, identifying creative opportunities to bring them to new audiences worldwide”.
