Songwriters often overlook the topic of songwriter rights. One, because it can get really confusing, two, because they'd rather spend time creating than doing administrative tasks.

In this episode, we have a special guest and old friend, Entertainment Lawyer Megan Pekar, who will shed light on the legal aspects that songwriters need to know and why it's important.

Starting with Megan's personal experience of transplanting to the vibrant city of Nashville, this episode explores questions you may have never considered.

Have you ever wondered what rights you, as a songwriter, actually possess? What is a PRO, and should you sign up for one? Do you own your publishing, masters, and mechanical licensing? How do you know for sure? And how do you get your co-writers to talk about rights without being awkward?

Don't worry if these questions seem overwhelming right now. Megan will help demystify this complex landscape and empower you with knowledge about your rights as a creator.
