Bookkeeping for Musicians & Recording Artists

Music income comes from distributors, PROs, labels, publishers, and tour settlements, each on its own schedule. Without the streams separated, nobody can tell whether a tour made money or which revenue line is growing.

Income by source

Touring, streaming, publishing, sync, and merch tracked separately.

Tour profitability

Travel, lodging, per diems, and crew pay against what the run earned.

Royalties organized

By distributor, PRO, label, and publisher.

Band and crew 1099s

Session players and crew set up correctly from the start.

Musicians & Recording Artists — Frequently Asked Questions

Do you understand musicians & recording artists specifically?

Yes — that is the point of setting the books up by industry. Music income comes from distributors, PROs, labels, publishers, and tour settlements, each on its own schedule. Without the streams separated, nobody can tell whether a tour made money or which revenue line is growing.

Do you work in my existing accounting file?

Yes. We work inside your file so you keep ownership and full visibility. If you do not have one set up yet, we build it around your industry from the start.

Can you help if I am months behind?

That is our specialty. Cleanup is quoted at a fixed price after a short no-obligation review, so you know the cost before any work begins.
