Description
The Lucrative Afterlife of Music Estates by Eamonn Forde When a musician passes away, their story doesn't necessarily come to an end. In fact, it can sometimes take on a new life. However, managing the artist's legacy and ensuring they continue to generate income can be a delicate balancing act. This tension is unique to the music industry. Estate managers, music lawyers, record company executives, and archivists all play crucial roles in navigating this complex landscape. By drawing on interviews with those involved, Leaving the Building reveals how the music business strives to perfect the art of death.
