So, You're A Songwriter .... ??

A candid discussion with some cool songwriters.

What are the creative and business challenges songwriters face today where “frankenwriting” is becoming a new industry custom, streaming is the predominant form of exploitation, and 75% of songwriter’s income in the U.S. is regulated by the government through outdated consent decrees and antiquated provisions of the Copyright Act? These songwriters discuss the challenges of being a successful songwriter in this “new music business” and what they are doing to overcome the challenges.

The Association of Independent Music Publishers (AIMP) was formed in 1977 by a group of Los Angeles music publishers, and has local chapters in Los Angeles, New York and Nashville. The organization's primary focus is to educate and inform music publishers about the most current industry trends and practices by providing a forum for the discussion of the issues and problems confronting the music publishing industry.

The AIMP provides a unique medium for those in the music industry to discuss with their colleagues various points of view from the cutting edge of the ever-changing music business. The opportunity to exchange ideas and opinions with others on issues of mutual concern is fostered by the informal atmosphere of the AIMP's monthly meetings, forums, and workshops.

The AIMP includes in its membership not only independent music publishers, but those publishers that are affiliated with record labels or motion picture and television production companies. In addition, individuals from other areas of the entertainment community, such as motion picture, television, multimedia and home video producers, the record industry, music licensing and supervision, songwriters, artist managers and members of the legal and accounting professions are active in the AIMP.
