Are You Protected?
Copyrighting is a crucial step for your band and relatively inexpensive. Not only is it important to copyright your music and lyrics, but you also need to register your band's name as a "trade" name so that you can do business as a band and not as individuals. This will assist you in tracking sales, writing off equipment purchases and other band costs at tax time, and more.Click the link below to visit the Library of Congress website and get the copyright process for your music started today. You will find multiple ways to copyright your original works, including an online submission. If your band enters contest, submits material to venues/labels, or anything that would include any form of distribution or download, you can never be too safe. Are you protected?

Every state has different costs and methods associated with registering your band name as a business. You will want to look into different options (LLC, incorporation, etc.) to see what is best for your band's situation. Please contact a legal representative for additional details not found on your state's website.
