Your Band As A Business 101: An Entertainment Law Conversation
plus a showcase of up-and-coming Boise bands curated by Boise Rock School
Do you want to take the legal/financial/business part of your music more seriously, but you’re not sure what to do first, or next? Do you have a feeling like there are things you should be doing that you’re not? Do you have to personally pay taxes on all the money you collect for the band? Why can Miley Cyrus do a cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit at a concert without getting sued by Nirvana? How would Nirvana even sue now that it’s not a band anymore? If you included a pop-punk cover of Little Things by One Direction on your next album, would you have to pay One Direction or Ed Sheeran? A panel of attorneys and industry professionals will discuss actionable steps every musician or band should consider taking as they start or grow their music business. Bring your own questions, or just show up even if you don’t know what to ask.
