BMI, Muzooka Partner To Streamline Setlist Reporting
BMI and Muzooka have partnered to streamline setlist reporting for songwriters and composers worldwide.
This marks the first partnership with an American performing rights organization for Muzooka, who has previously partnered with international PROs including SOCAN, BUMA/STEMRA and others.
BMI songwriters and composers who already use the Muzooka platform to manage their live concert assets including artist photos, bios, and social media links, now also have the option to report setlists from this central hub.
“As a creator-focused company, we’re thrilled to have the opportunity to contribute to the livelihood of touring artists by making setlist reporting a little easier,” said Muzooka CEO Shawn Wilson. “Concerts are a huge part of the overall music experience for fans around the world, and without great songs, there would be no live shows. Knowing that Muzooka is working together with BMI to support its songwriters and rights holders is paramount to us.”
“Songs are the foundation for any live concert, and we’re in the business of making sure our songwriters, composers and music publishers get paid when their music is played publicly,” said Alison Smith, EVP, Distribution, Publisher Relations & Administration Services, BMI. “This new partnership with Muzooka gives our affiliates an alternative way to report their setlists, which in turn helps facilitate the distribution of royalties when their music is performed at concerts around the world.”
