With over 17,000 songs in its catalogue, 38 tracks in Spotify’s Billion Streams Club, and a record-breaking hit tied for the longest-running No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100 – this is the story of Seeker Music. Founded by M&G in 2020 and led by GRAMMY award-winning songwriter Evan Bogart, Seeker Music is redefining how music catalogues are used, valued and transformed – with creativity at its core.
