3tone Music Group announced a new USD $50 million investment from Carlton James Group, an existing backer of the UK-based music business. 3tone, which bills itself as a "talent-focused music and media company," is best known for its indie distribution and artist/label services . Why is this news so intriguing that we decided to publish it on Christiandance.eu? 3tone provides unlimited digital distribution to multiple streaming platforms for independent artists for a single annual fee, making it a serious competitor to TuneCore and DistroKid.
