Management Agreement

If you're new to the music industry one thing you'll have the daunting prospect of facing is contracts. These can be confusing but it's important to have an understanding of how they work in order to agree a deal which works for both parties. Below is an example of a management contract and I've hopefully been able to explain some of the key points so that it isn't as complicated. I've also made some amendments from the artists point of view. Obviously in a real scenario each of the clauses would be heavily negotiated but hopefully this will give you a basic understanding of how a management contract works. Hope you find it useful.
