Music Publishing

One of the aspects of the music business that most musicians don't fully comprehend is song publishing. It's a little difficult, yes, but it's also important that you grasp if you want to make a living off of your music. The marketing and commercialization of musical compositions is the business of music publishing. Music publishers make sure that composers earn royalties for their works and seek to provide chances for those works to be played and copied. Most artists hope to get a substantial publication contract with a prominent Publisher, however this may not be feasible for those who are just starting out.

Back in the day, complete publication arrangements were the norm in the business. A songwriter who has received full publication assigns the publisher all of their rights. The whole publishing agreement encompasses all the work that the songwriters will produce while the agreement is in effect, generally with a contractual requirement for a minimum number of songs created. A completely other form of publishing services are administration arrangements. In essence, the publisher's responsibility under the admin agreement is to audit and collect royalties for the artist. In that scenario, the songwriter retains complete ownership of the copyright and pays the publisher a "administration fee" equal to 10% to 25% of the publisher's share.
