On the this episode of the Artist Rights Watch, Nik and David sit down to talk about the basics of music publishing with the University of Georgia Music Business Director, David Barbe. This episode start the ARW publishing series where we’ll have a couple episodes directed to songwriters and publishers. Music publishing is all about the publishers and the writers of the underlying composition. When you hear a record, you’re listening to the sound recording which is the artist. The words that you hear are known as the composition which is the songwriter. There are many differences between a songwriter/publisher and an artist/record label. From the way you license works, the way works are treated, and the usage of works. In this episode we will dive into the basics of publishing so that you have a good overall understanding for our publishing series.
