Redemption Music Media Launches to Protect Artist Rights; CEO to Speak at AmericanaFest 2025 in Nashville

PR Newswire

DETROIT, Sept. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Redemption Music Media (RMM), a new platform dedicated to helping musical artists and their heirs reclaim rights and monetize their catalogs, has launched. Led by CEO Jeffrey P. Thennisch, RMM specializes in copyright reclamation, catalog management, and maximizing music revenue and royalties—not only for songwriters, but also for arrangers, sound engineers, mixers, producers, and session musicians. The company empowers creators with the tools and expertise to safeguard their artistic legacy.

RMM emerges at a time when many artists and estates are seeking a "second bite at the copyright apple." By navigating termination rights, reversion laws, and catalog strategy, the company offers solutions to help creators regain control of their work and build enduring family wealth through music.

"This is about social justice as much as it is about royalties," says CEO Thennisch. "Too many creators find themselves struggling in retirement. RMM exists to make sure the people who gave us the soundtrack of our lives can protect their work—and benefit from it—long after the spotlight fades."

As part of its debut, RMM will participate in AmericanaFest 2025 in Nashville on September 12. Thennisch joins the panel "A Second Bite at the Copyright Apple," presented by the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP), where experts will discuss how artists can reclaim rights through due diligence, early registration, and innovative catalog management.

With more than 30 years as an award-winning 'Super Lawyer' in intellectual property law, Thennisch is a recognized authority on the recapture of music publishing rights under the U.S. Copyright Act and the Canadian Copyright Act. He has represented Motown legend Hank Cosby ("The Tears of a Clown"), funk pioneer George Clinton ("Atomic Dog"), and arranger Paul Riser ("What Becomes of the Brokenhearted"), along with many other landmark performers and catalogs. He has also advised policymakers and industry leaders on protecting legacy musicians and strengthening creators' rights.
