Groover

[FUNDRAISING - Series A] 🚀 We're thrilled to announce that Groover has raised $8 million in Series A funding! 🚀 Today, Groover already helps 350,000 artists from over 186 countries, with significant growth in the United States accounting for nearly 40% of our revenue 🇺🇸 Supported by leading investors including OneRagtime, Trind Ventures, Techmind, and Mozza Angels, as well as our historical investors Partech, Bpifrance, Verve Ventures, and Frenchfounders, this funding marks a pivotal moment in our journey towards revolutionizing music promotion for independent artists worldwide. 🌍 Our Vision: At Groover, we believe that talent deserves to be heard, regardless of industry barriers or geographic boundaries. In an era where over 120,000 new tracks flood the market daily, standing out as an independent artist can feel like an uphill battle. That's where Groover comes in! 💡 Our Mission: Founded by musicians and music journalists Romain, Dorian & Rafaël, Groover empowers artists by facilitating direct connections with industry professionals. Our platform serves as a launchpad for talent, providing invaluable feedback and networking opportunities to help artists thrive in an oversaturated market. 🎶 What's Next: With this new funding, we're excited to expand our offerings, introducing additional services such as promotion, marketing, coaching, and career development support. Our aim is clear: to equip independent artists with the tools they need to succeed, while strengthening our strategic presence across North America, Europe, and Latin America. 👏 A Special Thanks: To our investors, partners, and the entire Groover community for their day-to-day support. Your belief in our vision fuels our passion and propels us forward towards even greater heights 🧡 #fundraising #musicindustry 🚀

Let’s go back to last week’s Groover x The New Colossus Festival Showcase 🪩✨ Last Wednesday, we had the chance to organise a showcase in collaboration with New Colossus Festival at Pianos in NYC. The night started with a discussion around the topic of ‘How to promote your shows’, hosted by three amazing speakers, including our Brand Manager Amy Siripunyo 🎤 Afterwards, Nikita Lev, Sandro Bevilaqua and Why Another performed live to spoil us with great music! 🎸 Thanks to New Colossus for this great event, and thanks to everyone who came! Looking forward to our next event in NYC 😎   📷 @joelandrewsimard

Every year, we have a special day called Chill-Day... Normally, we gather at Romain's countryside house, but our team has grown so much that we had to think bigger this time 😎 This year, we chose the SOLIDAYS FESTIVAL for a super chill day to relax and soak up the festive atmosphere! To summarize: • A fantastic picnic organized by our Happiness Officer Sophie Amadou - It was sooo delicious 🧺 • A chance to meet our new interns even before they officially start. We wanted them to feel right at home 👋 • Amazing concerts that got everyone dancing, with some of us staying until the early hours 🎸 It was a wonderful day filled with laughter, music, and good vibes. Thanks to everyone who joined and made this event unforgettable! But especially Sophie for the organization!! 💛 #Groover #GDAY2024 #Solidays #GrooverTeam
