The Double Dip: How Your Setlist Becomes a Check
Every time you play your original songs live, the venue owes a public performance royalty to your PRO (ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, or PRS). Many artists leave this money on the table.
A proactive agency ensures your setlists are reported correctly. You get paid the “Performance Fee” by the promoter, and then months later, you get a “Live Royalty” check from your PRO.
The Bottom Line: Your agent helps you harvest every cent of your songwriting value from the stage.
