Lunch and Learn is BACK - our virtual series exclusively for SONA members that showcases experts in our field with a guided conversation and member Q&A. This next installment is with BMG’s Director of A&R, Claire Bernardin.

This Lunch & Learn will cover the basics of music publishing, as well as how it applies to your business as a songwriter. We will explore topics such as royalties & the movement of monies through the publishing pipeline, and what you need to do to make sure you’re interacting with your publisher in the best way possible.

Join us Tuesday March 25 at 12 pm PT. Link to Zoom registration is in bio. A recording of the event will be made available to members. If you cannot attend the zoom but have questions you would like to ask Claire, please email info@wearesona.com.
