Lucie Caswell (GM Music Publishers Association)
Lucie is the General Manager and Chief Policy Officer of the Music Publishers Association (MPA). The MPA represents over 95% of the UK’s song rights, through its membership of over 200 music publishers, ranging from iconic Independents to the international Major Publishers. Prior to the MPA, Lucie was the CEO of performing artists’ collective, the Featured Artists Coalition (FAC). Lucie has over 17 years’ experience in the music business, including time at PRS for Music in digital licencing and within Indie music publishing companies. She also ran her own rights-management company, operating on both sides of the negotiating table for clients including Deezer, eMusic, Sony/SYCO and The BRIT Awards, amongst others. She is a lead copyright negotiator, specialising in multi-territory, digital rights. Lucie is a staunch advocate of equal opportunities, human rights and inclusivity, believing in music and arts as catalysts for change and emancipation. Lucie is also on the management team of the Palestine Music Expo, the first international music conference and showcase event, held in the Occupied Territories. I am really grateful that Lucie found time in her very busy schedule to talk to me for the podcast. It was a very insightful and informative conversation. I hope you enjoy it.
