Olivier Chastan’s acquisition vehicle Iconoclast has struck a deal for a catalog of music assets of legendary singer and artist Tony Bennett.

Included as part of the deal, according to Iconoclast, are rights to certain Tony Bennett sound recordings, his sound recording royalties, NIL (name, image & likeness) and archives/memorabilia.

Iconoclast said that it has already secured deals for a number of upcoming “Tony Bennett-branded initiatives”, such as a series of watches with Bulova, a restaurant located in New York City and various film and TV projects including “The Lady and The Legend”

The value of the transaction was not disclosed by the company, but sources tell MBW that the deal was worth below $50 million.

It’s understood that Sony Music will continue to own/control the bulk of Bennett’s sound recordings catalog.

Absolutely my first thought! The rights to it were part of his estate being sold, and that would definitely cause the delay

I wonder if they offered it to Gaga first

If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating.

Inb4 she's the one who bought it just so she can put in on a vault next to ARTPOP Act II, Americano mariachi version and RedOne LG5 demos and lock it.
