Rock n' Roll Ethics Featuring Jim Jess, Esq.

The Basics of Music Copyright Law with Ethics

Friday, May 23, 2025 - Webinar

Music copyright expert, Jim Jess, Esq., will give attendees a broad overview of music copyright law concepts, but drilling down when necessary to discuss the sources of revenue songs can generate and other pertinent areas including what is a copyright and how to get one.
Attendees will also learn the exclusive rights you get when you have a copyright and what those basic rights mean under federal law. Further, attendees will learn the basic of music licensing and the two copyrights in every song. We will explore music publishing and production and how it realties to music copyright law.
During the ethics segment, attendees will learn the unique issues faced when representing an organization as a client, particularly one as unique as a musical group, and, in this case, The Beatles (and others). Picture yourself as General Counsel for the biggest band in the world during their last years.
All the while, you will listen to music, interview clips, and videos.
