Publishing Notes: Sony/ATV, Green Hills Music

July 20, 2009/by Sarah Skates

sonyatv_logo_offSeveral financial firms are looking into purchasing Michael Jackson’s share of the Sony/ATV catalog. Among those interested are Colony Capital, Kohlberg Kravis Roberts, Plainfield Asset Management and the media mogul Haim Saban, the New York Times reports. Jackson’s 50% stake in the publisher–which owns a majority of the Beatles copyrights–could be worth as much a $500 million, says the newspaper. Sony/ATV’s catalog includes songs by Bob Dylan, and Joni Mitchell, and is the publishing home to artists/writers Taylor Swift, Kenny Chesney, Bill Anderson, Rascal Flatts, Brooks & Dunn, Miranda Lambert, and Eric Church, among many others.
