What is EMI Music Publishing?

EMI Music Publishing is the largest music publishing company in the world. We have offices in over 30 countries and own the largest catalogue of songs in the world. The company has won and continues to win more industry accolades and publisher of the year awards than any other music publisher.

When is the right time for me to sign a publishing deal?

It's different for everyone but if you are unsigned we can help you with demos, shop a deal, get a van etc. If you have a record deal we work with you to find placement opportunities (movies, tv, video games, ringtones), help at radio, and collect your royalties.

For Songwriter's (Track Producers & Lyric and Melody writers) we can help keep you aware on who is looking for material, help set up collaborations with other songwriters (Track Producers and Lyric and Melody writers) to create songs and we help shop those songs to record labels and artist.

What are ASCAP and BMI?

ASCAP and BMI are performing rights organizations. They collect performance royalties on behalf of writers and publishers

How do I get a publishing deal?

Bands: EMI does not accept unsolicited demos. What does that mean? You need a lawyer or manager to submit your music on your behalf.

Don't have one?

That does not mean you can not get a publishing deal. Create a buzz! Play shows, create a fanbase... If you are making noise in your area we will find you!
