Sum 41 frontman and principal songwriter Deryck Whibley is the latest artist to have his publishing catalogue acquired by an investment firm.
As Billboard reports, Whibley's publishing has been acquired by HarbourView Equity Partners, who also hold the publishing and/or recorded music catalogues of Brad Paisley, Lady A, Hollywood Undead, Luis Fonsi and more. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
According to music data company Luminate (f.k.a. P-MRC Data) [via Billboard], Sum 41's seven-LP catalogue has sold 15 million album units worldwide.
Earlier this year, Sum 41 buried the hatchet with Simple Plan with collaborative single "Ruin My Life," while guitarist-vocalist Dave "Brownsound" Baksh revealed he was cancer-free after the discovery of a tumour in March.
