Artist Fund Music Release


Produced by John Seda

John Seda is an award-winning producer, songwriter, recording engineer, and entrepreneur with more than 30 years of experience in the music industry. As the founder of Rising Sun Music Recording Studios in Tampa, Florida, he has worked with Grammy Award-winning, Gold, Platinum, and Hall of Fame artists while helping develop independent musicians through professional recording, production, and artist development.

Seda is also the creator and CEO of UruUruApp.com, a direct-to-fan music platform that empowers artists to sell their music through QR codes, allowing them to keep more of their earnings by reducing reliance on traditional middlemen. His passion for music extends beyond the studio through the Rising Sun Music Community Artist Fund, an initiative dedicated to creating opportunities, supporting local artists, and strengthening communities through music.

Known for combining creative vision with innovative technology, John continues to advocate for artist independence, music education, and community collaboration while producing music and mentoring the next generation of musicians.

Why this matters

Great music needs more than great songs.

Building a professional live show requires musicians, rehearsals, transportation, sound, lighting, promotion, photography, video, and dedicated preparation.
