Description
Do not miss out on an opportunity to collect growing royalties from Smooth Jazz Composer, Johnny Britt. A catalog earning for almost 17 years and growing does not come around often.
The top earner for this catalog is the tribute to Grover Washington Jr., “Grover’s Groove”. This track was released on smooth jazz trumpeter, Rick Braun’s, 2001 Album “Kisses In the Rain”. The earnings from the song represent 31% of the royalties over the last 12 months with a growth of 14% from the 12 months prior.
Rounding out the consistency of this collection are the songs “On the Wes Side” made popular by the late jazz Guitarist Jeff Golub and “Grand Central” by Grammy-nominated saxophonist, Boney James. These tracks cover an additional 26% of earnings over the last 12 months.
Key Drivers
Jazz/Streaming. According to BuzzAngle’s 2018 report, as a genre, over half of jazz listeners tune in through streaming platforms. This is good news for you over 69% of recent earnings came from streaming. As the winning investor will benefit from this collection's increasing streaming growth. In the last 12 months alone, this collection has shown notable growth at 47%.
Dollar Age. This catalog has a Dollar Age of approximately 17 years. This means the majority of royalties earned in the last 12 months came from songs that have collected royalties for nearly two decades. A high Dollar Age like this suggests stability and longevity. “Grover’s Grove” was released in 2001 and royalties continue to grow/remain consistent. A catalog containing mature works with consistent (and even growing earnings) is something worth noting as an investor. This can help sustain a catalog's earnings moving forward.
