Spirit Within New Age Radio - Broadcast License Agreement

 

1) I, the undersigned artist or legal artists representative, hereby warrant (and have verified) that I am the *sole* copyright owner for each of my non-musical or musical composition(s) and sound recording(s) (hereafter referred to collectively as .Works) included on Spirit Within New Age Radio and the Spirit Within Alliance Network, subsidiaries, affiliations, syndicates, and subscriber radio stations, Spirit Within New Age Radio and Spirit Within Alliance Network (hereafter referred to as SWNAR/SWAN) and that I have the full legal authority to grant a license to publicly perform and broadcast said Works. If the musical or non-musical composition is a public domain work, I affirm that I own 100% of the copyright on the arrangement of said non-musical or musical composition.

 

2) As the sole copyright owner for said Works, I give Jon Nipp and SWNAR/SWAN my full permission to publicly perform and broadcast these Works over the Internet, Terrestrial Radio Stations, and other broadcast platforms in existence now or in the future. By signing this statement, I grant Jon Nipp and SWNAR/SWAN a license to publicly perform and broadcast these Works via SWNAR/SWAN, royalty-free, in exchange for the opportunity to have my non-musical or musical composition heard by SWNAR/SWAN listeners. I understand that I retain all rights, titles, and interest to my Works including, without limitation, all copyrights. I understand that signing this agreement does not obligate SWNAR/SWAN to broadcast said Works.

 

3) As the copyright owner of the Works, I declare that in regards to licensing my Works to Jon Nipp and SWNAR/SWAN, I will represent myself. I waive representation by SoundExchange (for the RIAA, AFTRA and AFM), BMI, ASCAP, SESAC, and all international performance royalty collection agencies or organizations only as it relates to the inclusion of the Works in the various broadcast forms of SWNAR/SWAN programming and the programming of subscriber or simulcaster radio stations and entities.
