Dear Prospective BAC Member

The intention behind The Business Affairs Club (BAC) is to provide a resource where you can access expertise and information or at least be told where you can find the information that will help you navigate the business side of the music industry.

We specialise in:

  • record deals,
  • publishing deals,
  • sync licensing and marketing,
  • general licensing,
  • sample clearances,
  • music supervision,
  • publisher splits,
  • band management advice and
  • helping with the legal notice requirements for CD/LP’s etc.

We can help with general business affairs, simple contracts and deal negotiation. There are times when we will have to kick things up a level and consult entertainment lawyers, tax professionals and/or accountants.  We can also help you to find the necessary professionals depending on your business circumstances.
