We have a well-respected Music Group, acting for artists, publishers, and producers from music, stage, film and television industries as well as record companies, and non-music corporates entering the music industry. Through acting for both publishers and artists, often involving the use of new media and new merchandising platforms, our music lawyers have a real understanding of today's commercial legal issues together with potential conflicts arising between writers and publishers and the ways in which those conflicts can be handled.
We have particular expertise in arranging clearances and drafting the contracts for the staging and recording of live events and tours and have advised on some of the largest live events which have taken place in recent years, including the Somerset House concert series, and the Urban Music Festival.
Harbottle & Lewis also has particular experience in the field of exploiting content via mobile telecommunication devices. The Music Group has a pre-eminent expertise in advising clients on clearance rights for music content in these areas.
