Music Dealers LLC, a Chicago-based company that provides a solution for connecting independent artists and music licensors into all audio/visual media, has closed $2.18m in Series B funding.
The round was led by a group of new and existing private investors.
The company intends to use the funds to expand its market share among clients – especially F500 brands and grow both domestically and internationally.
