Description

It’s important that the business arrangement between a manager and their client (artist, musician, songwriter, producer, engineer, etc) be put into writing and signed by both parties in the form of an artist management contract or music manager agreement.
Even though disasters cannot always be avoided, obligations can be made much clearer and responsibilities more easily understood with the presence of a written artist management agreement. Before you get an attorney to draft a contract for you, however, you should first take stock of what you are prepared to do with and for an artist and what you expect out of the relationship.

FAQ

As a general rule, managers take a percentage of all income generated by the artist in exchange for their management services. Commission rates typically range from 15-25% of the artist's gross income from: Recording royalties: Sales, streaming and licensing of recorded music.

The most common distribution is 15-20% for the artists and 75-80% for labels but it can go up to 50-50 with indie labels. For example, if you sign a 360° contract, your record label manages all aspects of your music project, from manufacturing to distribution, from marketing to publishing to sub-licensing, and more.

Managers' commissions are typically between 15 to 20% of an artist's gross income. Whether it's 15% or 20% really depends on the level of the band and the bargaining power of each party. I've seen some net deals, but they are extremely rare. That being said, I always push for a net commission on merchandise.

As a general rule, managers take a percentage of all income generated by the artist in exchange for their management services. Commission rates typically range from 15-25% of the artist's gross income from: Recording royalties: Sales, streaming and licensing of recorded music.

How long is a normal artist manager contract? The standard length of the management contract is three years but it can vary from 2 to 5 years on a case by case basis. Most contracts also include a "Sunset" clause.

Most property management agreements are for one year, but shorter or longer terms are possible. Outline any renewal options or termination clauses. Scope of Services: Clearly define the property manager's responsibilities and services.

Sunset Clause (place after Term) A sunset clause specifies that the manager's commission rights extend for a period of time even after the termination of the agreement. For example, a 2-year sunset means the manager would still receive commission from any deals they negotiated during the contract term.

This typically involves providing written notice within the specified timeframe and adhering to any other requirements stated in the agreement. Remember, getting out of a music management contract can be a complex process, and it's important to approach it carefully before terminating.

Business owners often sign these written agreements directly with the management company. This typically gives the management company operational control for an established period of time, usually for two to five years.
