Bands & Brands: Essential Trademark Law for Musicians
It's often said: a band is a brand. As the music business continues to evolve, merchandising and licensing are becoming larger parts of the income-generating stream for musicians. In this environment, musicians must be savvy at how they protect and leverage their brand. Forced name changes and fights over a band's identity are just two common pitfalls musicians face when they don't consider trademark law until it's too late. Seattle trademark attorney and indie rock enthusiast Mike Atkins will tell you all you need to know about the types of problems that can arise, how to prevent them, and what to do if faced with one. From choosing and clearing a name, to band agreements and break-ups, this presentation will cover it all. Question and answer session to follow.
