Episode 5: Music Publishing with Eric Beall and Mike Errico

about

In this episode, rather than discuss the craft of songwriting, I turn the spotlight on the business side. To most people, how songwriters make a living is a mystery. Our earning power is rooted in the monetization of copyright, an industry known as music publishing. Just the world of recorded music has been revolutionized over the past 15 years, so has the world of publishing. I sat down with 2 great music business minds – Eric Beall of Shapiro Bernstein Publishing and freelance writer, musician and songwriting teacher Mike Errico – to discuss the dilemmas (and new found freedoms) songwriters face in the digital age. In our conversation we cover the growing anxiety over Spotify, Apple Music, and other on-demand streaming services, address the possible obsolescence of the modern song form (why are we still writing 3 minute songs for the radio?), and question the nature of copyright and it’s validity on Internet. It’s a great and spirited 52 minutes of chat I think anyone interested in songs will get something out of.
