Rowe International

Chrysalis Music Brings Jethro Tull, David Bowie, and many others to the AMI Network

Chrysalis is affiliated with some of the biggest names in music history

GRAND RAPIDS, MI AMI Entertainment, the music arm of Rowe International, has reached an agreement with Chrysalis Music, an international independent publishing company.

The deal opens up a music catalog for the AMI Entertainment network from some major artists including Jethro Tull, David Bowie, Billy Idol, My Morning Jacket, Gnarls Barkley, Van Halen (w/David Lee Roth), Galactic, Secret Machines, Ray LaMontagne, John 5, Priestess, Shadows Fall and many others.

Chrysalis clears licensing and copyrights through its offices in Germany, Scandinavia, France, Spain, Holland, Italy, and the United States. The group is responsible for large groups of writers, A&R reps, and artist development teams, and is also responsible for setting up collaborations between its affiliated writers. In short, Chrysalis just so happens to be affiliated with some of the biggest names in music history, which is of course a major focus for the jukebox market.

In the digital arena, jukebox companies like Rowe-AMI have become highly-involved mediums, as well as necessary promotional avenues for artists. The changing digital landscape demands close connection between licensing companies and music providers. It is crucial to form relationships with enviable music catalog, as today’s digital music customer is used to easy access to their favorite songs, when they want it.

The Grand Rapids, MI based jukebox company has many parallels with Chrysalis Music, in that both have been involved with providing the public ear with quality music for decades. Rowe-AMI has been in the jukebox business, during its various phases since its inception some 97 years ago.

Many of the artists on the Chrysalis Roster have become classic jukebox artists, making the agreement essential for AMI. Jethro Tull in particular, the flute-wielding Classic Rock outfit, has never been offered on AMI digital jukeboxes, though they were favorites on the traditional vinyl and CD formats sold in the past.

More contemporary artists like Shadows Fall and Priestess get to use the AMI Network as useful promotional tool, extending fan base, and cultural relevance. Jukebox plays, historically, mirror the efforts of national tour activity and follow popular radio play. Both bands have been quite visible on each of these fronts in recent years. Shadows Fall, who released ‘Threads of Life’ on April 4, 2007, is currently on the high profile Jagermeister Music Tour with Stone Sour and Lacuna Coil.
