YouTube, Universal Partner to Build Hulu for Music
New Video Site Vevo to Use Customized Player
by Michael Learmonth
Published: April 09, 2009
NEW YORK (AdAge.com) -- Google's YouTube and Universal Music Group, the world's largest record label, are going into business together in a deal they hope will forge a future for ad-supported music.
UMG's artists and channels have accumulated 6.2 trillion views on YouTube since its inception.
The two announced a licensing and advertising-revenue-sharing agreement today that covers the use of UMG music on YouTube around the world, as well as a joint venture to create a new video site, Vevo, a concept that bears more than a small resemblance to the NBC-News Corp. joint venture meant to create a business for ad-supported TV online, Hulu.
Vevo, which will be launched later this year, initially will have just UMG music, but CEO Doug Morris said he is in talks with Sony Music Entertainment, EMI and Warner Music Group about joining the venture. Warner pulled its content off YouTube in December after an impasse in talks to renew a licensing deal.
The new service changes the old model under which YouTube paid the labels a fraction of a penny when a song was played, either as an official video or a soundtrack for a user-generated video. The economics of the new deal are based on sharing ad revenue.
Like Hulu, Vevo will have its own, separate site and customized, branded player, which can be embedded on other sites, as well as carry pre-roll video ads. YouTube will provide the technology and infrastructure for Vevo, its first outside site. Google CEO Eric Schmidt said he'd like to see YouTube launch other sites, perhaps for other types of content.
UMG's artists and channels have accumulated 6.2 trillion views on YouTube since its inception, according to web-video-analytics company TubeMogul. Sony Music Entertainment has accrued 4.8 trillion views, and Warner Music Group has just over 1 trillion views. Typically music videos account for between 40% and 60% of the top 100 videos at any given time. The deal keeps UMG tracks on YouTube, a vital source of advertiser-friendly content.
Creating a Hulu for music isn't a new idea. Viacom is giving it a try with MTV Music. The next question for Vevo is whether the other labels now follow suit. CBS, ABC and Viacom stood on the sidelines two years ago when NBC and Fox created Hulu; now Viacom is licensing content to the service, and ABC is in talks to join up. The labels desperately need to develop new revenue streams besides the sale of physical CDs.

Ben Harper & Felice Brothers Tour Dates Announced

Ben Harper and Relentless7 announce tour dates
By Gray Chapman on April 7, 2009 8:00 AM
First it was the Blind Boys of Alabama, then it was the Innocent Criminals. Now, Ben Harper has orchestrated another album with his latest musical entourage, Relentless7. In promotion of their debut album, Harper and Relentless7 have announced a packed schedule of club dates and summer festivals.
Harper's new blues-rock troupe will be hitting the dusty tour trail in May, just months on the heels of its recent SXSW debut. They plan on hitting up Bonnaroo and Sasquatch!, and will even make a stop at Pete Seeger's birthday party.
Ben Harper and Relentless7 will release their debut album, White Lies for Dark Times, on May 5. The single, "Shimmer and Shine," is currently available on iTunes, and the video is up on the band's website.

Felice Brothers go on tour, offer free download
By Joe Shearer on April 6, 2009 2:20 PM
On the Tuesday their fourth album hits stores, the Felice Brothers, in all their vagabond glory, will hit the road for a 21-date tour spanning most of the month of April, as well as a few dates in May and July. The band, comprised of three brothers and a couple of friends from New York's Catskill Mountains, is a much rowdier act than some of the songs you've heard might suggest—much heavier on the washboard and the accordion, and in the process, less so on the piano. Just don't go in expecting the recordings.
Perhaps it was their live set influencing the new material or vice versa, but the latest record, Yonder is the Clock, is a much more, do we dare say, bar-brawl-inspired effort than the self-titled previous turn.
Some of this energy, as well as subtle hints of the band's proclaimed love for hip-hop like Wu-Tang Clan and its members subsequent solo endeavors, can be seen in the bass-pounding "Run Chicken Run," available as a free download from the band's label, Team Love Records.
