we are building the go-to platform for music collectors and fans to collect directly from their favorite artists, labels & scenes
THE PROBLEM
Music collectors and fans who 'invest' in their favorite artists have no single, trusted destination to go to.
COLLECTORS & SUPERFANS ARE SHIFTING THE MUSIC INDUSTRY
They spend 80% more each month around music. [MBW, 2024] and account for 52% of non-music revenue [Spotify report 2023]
THEY ARE SPENDING MORE ON COLLECTIBLE ITEMS
The collectibles industry is set to be worth $600bn by 2030 and music merch valued at $16bn alone.
the music collecting market is fragmented & underserved
The collecting experience and knowing where to go in music is hard. We are here to make that easy.
other cultural verticals have multi-billion dollar 'go-to' platforms
we are leveraging our history, collecting audience and access to artists to build the world's leading direct-to-fan music collectibles platform.
