LOS ANGELES, Jan. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Interact-TV
Incorporated (OTC: ITVI) is pleased to announce that its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Pocket Kid Records, has signed a recording
and licensing agreement with Epic Records regarding Pocket Kid's
signed artist, Dead Sara.
The agreement gives Epic the immediate right to manufacture,
distribute, market and sell Dead Sara's self-titled debut album
(released in April 2012) outside
the United States and Canada. The agreement also calls for Epic to
finance the recording and production of the next album and gives
Epic exclusive worldwide rights to manufacture, distribute and sell
Dead Sara's next album, which will be released with both Pocket Kid
Records' and Epic's logos.
"While we've already achieved many important milestones in the
development of our young record company, this relationship with
Epic is a significant leap forward," commented Robert Bryan, president of both Interact-TV and
Pocket Kid Records. "Dead Sara's first overseas tour last year
created a strong interest from fans outside the U.S. who wanted
access to Dead Sara's songs. Among many other important operational
targets reached, the agreement with Epic will now allow us to make
songs off of Dead Sara's first album available to foreign
territories, and will ensure worldwide distribution going
forward."
Mr. Bryan continued: "Our Agreement with Epic places the power
and financial resources of a major music industry corporation
behind our Dead Sara releases. We expect a tremendous increase in
fan base, name recognition, and value of the Dead Sara franchise as
a result of this agreement."
Steve Medley, chairman of the board
of Interact-TV commented, "We are pleased with Pocket Kid Records'
performance. Everything they have done including this agreement
with Epic shows that they have the knowledge, management and
resources to successfully compete in today's music industry and
develop and break new talent. We couldn't ask for anything more
from our Pocket Kid team."
