## Summary

BeatBread has appointed five advisers from Meta, Suno, Kobalt Capital, PopHatch and Spotify as new chief executive Andreea Gleeson sets the independent music financing platform’s direction. The board is intended to help shape its strategy and develop more flexible advances and loans as competition for financing independent artists increases.

The appointments follow a difficult period after founder and former CEO Peter Sinclair died in 2025; Gleeson, previously TuneCore’s CEO, took the role in September. Founded in 2020, BeatBread says it has provided about $100 million in advances across roughly 2,000 creator transactions. It raised $124 million in credit and equity funding last year to expand its AI-based underwriting technology internationally, and added a separate adviser on AI and machine learning in March.
