Fifteen Years of Fighting for Musicians!

Future of Music Coalition is the trusted voice for musicians in the debates that shape the future of the music. The annual Future of Music Summit brings together musicians, policymakers and entrepreneurs all across the country to learn about the latest developments in the field. Our groundbreaking research brings real facts to the debates about the changing ways artists fare in today’s economy. And our fact sheets, guides and blog posts help translating the complex issues that impact creators.

All the results of our years of work – articles, guides, summaries and videos – are freely available on our website so that you could find the information you need when you need it.

Every contribution, no matter how big or small, brings us closer to a future when musicians will be fairly compensated for their work, and fans will have access to the music they love.
