The complex music publishing world – and Mandy Aubry to guide you through

Mandy Aubry admits, the complex world of music publishing can be alienating, frustrating and confusing. So, if you’re keen to understand it better, we recommend her workshop “Why Publishing Matters”. In this group discussion, Mandy Aubry will explain in everyday language the publishing essentials, the pros and cons of a traditional publisher – and why it’s never too soon to have your royalty administration covered. Be there and ask away – but make sure you sign up for this workshop in advance.

That’s not all – as we’ve said, Mandy Aubry is highly involved at MW:M19! Hence, she moderates the panel “Publishing 2020: Influencing the live performance publishing space”. Here, Irene Bauzá (VP of Operations, Unison Rights), James Carey (Founder & Producer, Evoke Music Management), Bernhard Famler (CEO & Co-Founder, seeqnc GmbH), and Greg Marshall (General Manager, AFEM (Association For Electronic Music) will discuss the current obstacles hindering the direct, accurate collection of live performance royalties. In this context, each panelist explains what he or she is doing to move with the times to improve the situation for the creators. Mark your calendar:

Last but not least, she’s part of the Meet the Expert! sessions. This is your chance to ask away all your questions – cause there is no stupid question (sorry, another saying!). Together with other high-level publishing experts, this is perfect for you to ask all your burning questions! As each expert has a limited number of 10 min. slots, you should pre-book an appointment. You can do so via MW:M database or the new MW:M app, or feel free to e-mail Mandy Aubry (mandy (at) songtrust.com). In good time before MW:M19, of course, so you might need to hurry up!
