Clear Channel and Nashville-based Dualtone Music Group announced an agreement today (June 5) enabling artists to share broadcast and digital radio revenue.

Today’s agreement follows several similar and recent agreements with Big Machine Label Group, Glassnote Entertainment Group, DashGo, rpm Entertainment, Robbins Entertainment, Naxos, eOne, Wind-up and Fearless Records.

Founded in 2001 by Scott Robinson, Dualtone represents The Lumineers, Shovels & Rope, Ivan & Alyosha, Little Comets and Guy Clark.

“Dualtone is dedicated to the long-term career development of each artist on our roster, and radio plays an essential role in their success,” said Robinson. “We will do whatever we can to help ensure a vibrant future for Internet radio as well as recognizing the continuing importance of broadcast radio. This is how our artists can reach as many of their fans as possible on whatever device they’re using.”
