Musicbed is a licensing platform that provides music for various media productions. Founded in 2011 by Daniel McCarthy.[1] and headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, Musicbed maintains a catalog of songs available for licensing. The company's name derives from the industry term "music bed," which refers to the background music track in a video production.
History
[edit]Founding and early years (2011–2015)
[edit]Daniel McCarthy, who had a background in photography, design, and filmmaking, created Musicbed to provide music tracks for filmmakers and content creators.[2]
From the start Musicbed offered only à la carte song licensing. This approach allowed customers to purchase licenses for individual songs as needed. As the company evolved, Musicbed expanded its offerings to include music subscription plans, custom music composition, and rights clearance services[3]
Recent years (2015 - present)
[edit]Musicbed launched Filmsupply, a film footage licensing platform, in 2015.[4]
In 2016, Musicbed announced a partnership with Nashville's Sun Record Company to make 1,100 tracks available for licensing.[5]
In 2018, Musicbed introduced memberships[6], later renamed into subscriptions.[7]
In March 2022, Musicbed restructured under FM[8], a parent company that includes several sister brands as of 2024.[9]
In 2023, Musicbed expanded its services by introducing a specialized division focused on serving the television and film industry.[10]
