Sonomo is a royalty investment platform based in Amsterdam. Our model gives artists the ability to turn their existing work into cash—without debt, without pressure, and without compromising their creative control.
Our mission is to support the next generation of independent artists—not just legacy acts. Unlike banks or traditional lenders, we recognize music as a valuable asset. Just like a homeowner can sell their house or an artist can sell their painting, musicians deserve the same optionality.
We're looking for musicians who are creating something unique, connecting with their fans, and seriously dedicated to taking their music career to the next level. Basically, we want to see that you've got your own sound, you're building a community around your music, and you're ready to put in the work to grow! We're excited to support artists who have a clear vision and the drive to make it happen.
No, the Indie Artist Scholarship Program is 100% free (no fees, no surprises, you keep 100% of your royalties). We believe in providing opportunities for talented artists regardless of their financial situation.
Absolutely.
We typically review applications within 1 week. You will receive an email notification regarding the status of your application, whether it's an acceptance, a request for more information, or a decline.
Yes, you retain 100% ownership of your music rights. The Sonomo Indie Artist Scholarship Program is designed to empower artists while ensuring they maintain control over their creative work.
There's no set "scholarship period." Once you're in, we'll support you as long as it makes sense for both of us! You can continue using Sonomo's distribution services under our standard terms, or if your needs change, you're free to move to another provider whenever you like. We're all about empowering artists and giving you the flexibility to manage your career your way.
We welcome applications from artists across all genres of music. Our goal is to support a diverse range of musical talent.
