Neil Young and Lindsey Buckingham are the latest musicians to sell shares of their music publishing catalogue to the intellectual property rights investor Hipgnosis Songs Fund. In a deal worth around £110 million, Young sold the company 50 per cent of the rights to his 1,180 self-written songs. For an undisclosed fee, Buckingham, who had previously sold a quarter-share of his songs, sold Hipgnosis the remainder, plus a 50 per cent stake of any future compositions.
