What This Bundle Does

Provides every contract you need to operate a legitimate record label from day one. Whether you're signing your first artist, collaborating with featured vocalists, or securing publishing rights, these templates give you the legal foundation to build a real music business—not a handshake operation that falls apart when money's involved.

Templates Included

Recording Agreement (Company-Artist)

Your primary artist deal template for direct signings. Establishes label ownership of master recordings, defines royalty splits, sets release commitments, and protects your investment when signing talent directly to your roster.

Use For: Signing artists directly to exclusive or non-exclusive recording agreements with your label

Recording Agreement (Company-Lender)

Structured for three-party recording deals where you're signing an artist through their representative entity (manager, production company, or loan-out company). Includes proper entity-to-entity contracting with inducement protections.

Use For: Artist deals where you're contracting through their management company, production company, or representative entity

Side Artist Agreement (Company-Side Artist)

For featured artists you work with directly on single tracks. Includes work-made-for-hire structure, customizable royalty rates, SoundExchange designation, and the critical inducement section that protects you when the side artist has other deals.

Use For: Guest vocalists, featured rappers, or any direct artist collaborations on specific tracks

Side Artist Agreement (Company-Lender)

For when you're working with a featured artist through their representative (manager, label, or loan-out company). Structured for three-party deals with proper entity-to-entity contracting and inducement protections.

Use For: Professional featured artist deals where you're contracting through their management company or label

Songwriter Agreement (Company-Songwriter)

Secures publishing rights and establishes clear ownership of compositions. Essential for labels that want to participate in publishing or need songwriter splits documented properly.

Use For: Documenting writing contributions on your releases

Vocalist Agreement (Buyout)

Clean buyout structure for session vocalists and hired performers. Work-made-for-hire language ensures you own the performance with no ongoing royalty obligations.

Use For: Session singers, demo vocalists, or any hired vocal performances where you need complete ownership
