Piers Henwood What surprising thing do more than half of the acts booked at the 2023 Coachella festival have in common? Unless they comply with burdensome, expensive, and exploitative administrative requirements, they would be barred from entering the United States to perform, and would have 30% of their payment siphoned off at source. Why? Because 52% of the artists at this year’s Coachella hail from countries outside the United States, including 56% of the top-billed performers. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) inexplicably treats foreign musicians like a potential threat to the republic, while the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) treats foreign musicians like a slush fund. And this has been true for decades, regardless of the political party in power.

DJ and producer 3lau – real name Justin Blau – is close to settling a lawsuit with former collaborator Luna Aura over the earnings from an NFT auction of his album ‘Ultraviolet’. It specifically relates to a song the two collaborators worked on together for the album, ‘Walk Away’.The producer’s NFT auction, which coincided with the third anniversary of the record, offered buyers various products and perks, all linked to his 2018 record, and some specifically to ‘Walk Away’.In her lawsuit Aura – real name Angela Anne Flores – said that, while Blau owns the copyright in the recording of ‘Walk Away’, she has a 30% stake in the song copyright, and was also due a 50% artist royalty under contract from the exploitation of the recording.She then claimed that Blau did not properly license the inclusion of ‘Walk Away’ in his NFT release and, rather than paying a proper royalty, offered her a standalone payment of $25,000.

Sony Music again this week argued that a copyright dispute with former members of the Jimi Hendrix Experience should be pursued in the courts in New York not London.Lawsuits have been filed on both sides of the Atlantic, but – Sony’s legal rep said – the US case should be prioritised, because the outcome in that will “save time, money and resources” when it comes to the UK litigation.This dispute is between Sony Music and the Jimi Hendrix’s estate on one side, and UK-based companies representing the estates of the other two members of the Jimi Hendrix Experience band – Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell – on the other.The latter claim they control rights in relation to the Experience catalogue which are being infringed by the Hendrix estate and its music distribution partner, which is Sony Music.The Hendrix estate counters that, after Hendrix’s death in 1970, both Redding and Mitchell signed agreements via which they basically gave up any copyright or royalty claims in relation to recordings made by the Jimi Hendrix Experience in return for “significant monetary consideration”.Neither Redding nor Mitchell ever subsequently raised any issues with those agreements while they were still alive.But the Redding and Mitchell companies argue that the 1970s agreements didn’t actually see the two musicians assign any rights and only related to revenues generated by the recordings at that time, which obviously didn’t include any digital income.Anticipating that the Redding and Mitchell companies were prepping legal action in the UK, the Hendrix estate and Sony Music filed legal action in New York seeking court confirmation that the 1970s agreements were still in force.
