Reach Music Publishing has entered into a publishing agreement with Fitz, songwriter and lead vocalist of the band Fitz and The Tantrums.
Through the deal, Reach Music has acquired the copyright interest in Fitz’s entire back catalogue of approximately 100 songs released by Fitz And The Tantrums, including the hits Handclap (4x RIAA-certified Platinum), Out Of My League (3x RIAA-certified Platinum), The Walker (RIAA-certified Platinum) and Moneygrabber (RIAA-certified Gold).
Fitz And The Tantrums have 7.4 million monthly listeners on Spotify.
Reach Music also controls the global administration rights to the shares it has acquired.
In addition, Reach Music has entered into an administration deal that covers Fitz’s shares in his current solo album Summer Of Us, as well as the upcoming Fitz And The Tantrums album slated for release later in 2025.
Prior to this publishing deal with Fitz, Reach Music was already the administrator for a large portion of his catalogue via Dangerbird Records.
Michael Closter, president/founder and owner of Reach Music, said: “It’s very exciting to be able to enter into this publishing deal with Fitz, and to represent copyright interests in songs that we had already been administering for many years and know so well. We are also looking forward to building on this relationship with Fitz for his new releases and future venture possibilities.”
Fitz said, “I’m thrilled to team up with Reach Music! Their passion for my music and hustle is real. I couldn’t be more excited about this deal and to make the future happen.”
Fitz was represented in the acquisition by lawyer Elizabeth V Gregory and managed by Adam Harrison of Full Stop Management.
