Gebbia Media, a subsidiary of Siebert Financial Corp, has acquired Big Machine Rock from HYBE America.
The rock imprint’s current roster includes Daughtry, Badflower, Sammy Hagar, Olive Vox and Ryan Perdz, among others.
“The acquisition marks a bold new chapter in Gebbia Media's rapid ascent within the music and media industries, where it is focused on building an artist-first platform that blends creative storytelling with strategic investment,” said a statement.
"Growing up with incredible music by iconic artists like Led Zeppelin, Van Halen and The Doors, I recognise the importance of bringing rock to a new generation of listeners and fans, who are ready to embrace it," said David Gebbia, CEO of Gebbia Media. "Big Machine Rock embodies the Gebbia Media approach: bold, cross-generational, and deeply in touch with the culture. This acquisition allows us to further our mission of empowering artists through investment in robust catalogs and cross-platform expansion."
GM Heather Luke-Husong has led the label's all-female team to No.1 rock singles and platinum-certified records.
"This acquisition marks another step in Siebert's commitment to innovating at the intersection of finance and culture,” said John J Gebbia, CEO of Siebert Financial. “By bringing Big Machine Rock into the Gebbia Media portfolio, we're aligning visionary talent with the resources and stability of a diversified financial platform, ensuring long-term growth and cultural impact.”
As part of the agreement, Scott Borchetta, founder of Big Machine Label Group, will continue to oversee operations and join the advisory board of Siebert Financial, parent company of Gebbia Media.
Artists currently signed to Big Machine Rock will remain part of the label's roster and will benefit from expanded resources, promotional capabilities and global reach, according to the announcement.
