Reservoir Media

Reservoir Media is an American independent music company headquartered in New York City, operating in music publishing and recorded music. It was founded in 2007 by Golnar Khosrowshahi, who serves as its chief executive officer. The publishing catalog includes works by writers such as Billy Strayhorn, Hoagy Carmichael, John Denver and Sheryl Crow, as well as rights to film music by Hans Zimmer. Recorded-music operations are run through the labels Chrysalis Records, Tommy Boy Records and Philly Groove Records. The company grew largely through catalog acquisitions, including TVT Music Enterprises (2010), Chrysalis Records (2019) and the Miles Davis catalog (2025). In 2021 it became a publicly traded company on the Nasdaq under the ticker RSVR through a business combination with the special-purpose acquisition company Roth CH Acquisition Co. II. In addition to its New York headquarters, it maintains offices in Los Angeles, Nashville, Toronto, London and Abu Dhabi. Its business is based on managing music rights, licensing them and monetizing its catalog.
