Berkeley's session will outline the different types of deal that an artist can get in the modern music industry – from deals with major and indie labels through to cutting edge global distribution structures - illustrated by real life examples along with an explanation why each type of structure may or may not be the right structure for a particular artist.
You'll leave the session with an overall understanding of the various options which are available to artists in 2021.
Berkeley heads up the music department at Clintons- one of the leading music practices in Europe. He represents a wide variety of musicians, producers and songwriters, from Michael Kiwanuka, Royal Blood, Jungle, Mura Masa and Jorja Smith through to Lewis Capaldi, girl in red, Joesef and Griff. Before becoming a lawyer he gained a grounding in the workings of the music industry by working in record labels and artist management companies.
