Music Publishing Deals

In the music industry, music publishing deals are agreements between songwriters and music publishers concerning the copyright and administration of musical compositions. These deals outline how royalties generated from the use of the songs (such as performance, mechanical, and synchronization royalties) will be split between the songwriter and the publisher. The publisher works to exploit the compositions through licensing and other means, ensuring the songwriter receives their share of the income.
