This script discusses the law as it applies to song writing, performing and recording music. In particular, it discusses the ownership of music and lyrics, getting paid for performances, the legal relationship among band members, contract relations with managers and agents, and dealing with agreements offered to you by recording companies and others. This script will be of particular interest to independent, non-union musicians who play in a group or band and hope one day to perform at a large event and be offered a recording contract.
