Soundstripe, the music licensing tech company, appointed Jeff Perkins as CEO. With a proven track record of scaling businesses, Perkins will lead Soundstripe as it prepares to launch a new “click-to-license music solution” later this year. Co-founder Travis Terrell will become president, focusing on partnerships and business development, while co-founders Micah Sannan and Trevor Hinesley will serve in advisory and CTO roles, respectively. Soundstripe supports over 1,000 enterprise clients and one million content creators with a diverse catalog of more than 15,000 sync-ready songs, enhanced by advanced AI tools. The company has distributed $13.2 million in payouts to artists. Before joining Soundstripe, Perkins spent five years at ParkMobile, where he served as chief marketing officer and later CEO, growing revenue by 233% and leading to its sale to EasyPark Group in 2021. Prior to ParkMobile, he was CMO at QASymphony (now Tricentis), where he secured a $40 million Series C. He has also held senior marketing roles at PGi and AutoTrader, as well as gigs in advertising at Saatchi & Saatchi and Havas. “He has proven himself a highly effective leader with experience scaling businesses that cater to both large enterprises and individual users,” said Terrell. “We know Jeff is the right person at the right time to lead Soundstripe into our next stage of growth.”
