Company mission
To empower all artists to get their music heard.
Our take
The barrier of entry to the music industry is infamously high, and it can prove difficult for independent music artists to promote their tracks, reach the right audiences, or gather constructive feedback. Groover sets out to solve this, supplying a platform that connects artists to music curators, radio stations and labels looking for talent, guaranteeing that these professionals will not only listen to their tracks but also provide feedback.
As it gets easier to release music, and subsequently harder to stand out from the crowd, Groover's offering could offer real value to artists looking to forge a career. A Series A funding round will see the company further enhance its service with capabilities such as marketing and career development support, as well as expand its presence in North America, Europe, and LATAM.
