Backlash Solutions is a United States–based accounting technology company serving the independent music sector, offering an end-to-end platform for royalty accounting and business management. The SR1 platform consolidates royalty calculation, financial reporting, artist statements, catalog management, and operational workflows for independent labels, distributors, and publishers. The system originated in 1999 when founder Dave Tomaselli developed it as an internal tool for Statra Recordings, later evolving from a client-hosted version in New York City to a cloud-based service by 2005. From 2005 through 2012, the company supported a global client base of independent music entities, providing a scalable alternative to traditional enterprise systems and aiming for financial clarity across the deal lifecycle. In January 2020, Backlash Solutions and its SR1 platform were acquired by Exactuals, a subsidiary of RBC City National Bank, marking a corporate development in its history.
