Miso Media, a US-based company for helping people play the guitar, is reportedly about to raise $2.4m.
News provider TechCrunch said the round would be led by Mind Fund (based in Hong Kong), with participation from Aria Ventures and Detroit Ventures Partners.
In January, Hearst Interactive Media, a division of publishing group Hearst, joined Google Ventures, the corporate venturing unit of search group Google, in backing Miso.
Google Ventures led the $1.5m series A round for Miso, having the month before invested in the portfolio company’s $600,000 seed round, while other backers include angel group 500 Startups and musician Justin Timberlake.
Joe Kraus, partner at Google Ventures, and Scott Wolfgang, director at Hearst, joined Miso’s board.
