Description
Up for bid are royalties generated the smash single “Stole The Show” from world-renowned DJ Kygo and American artist Parson James.
Released in 2015, “Stole The Show” was a global hit and is one of Kygo’s biggest commercial singles to date. The track charted in 25 separate countries, peaking at No. 33 on the Billboard Mainstream Top 40, and was Gold-certified or better in 15 countries, including Platinum in the United States. “Stole The Show” has a staggering 648+ million spins on Spotify, while the video has nearly 327 million views on YouTube.
The song’s global success led to 90% of last year’s earnings coming from abroad. The song has collected royalties from 60 countries to date, with Germany, The Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and France as leading contributors. “Stole The Show” also appears in various TV programs, which generates a royalty. Most recently the single was used in episodes of America’s Got Talent, World of Dance, and in Season 12 of Grey’s Anatomy (episode titled “Trigger Happy”).
This offering also features a solo version of “Stole The Show” performed by Parson James. The version was included in his 2015 EP, The Temple.
