Granted, most studio session contracts are work-for-hire agreements, where the performer releases all claims to the recorded material in exchange for pay, but has anyone signed a contract in which you, as the performer, retained some rights to the material, and determine how the material gets used in the future?
Some musicians and I have been hired by a wedding/function band company to record well-known songs, to be used as promotional material on the company's website. We're trying to ensure that the recorded tracks are ONLY used for those purposes, and NOT to create "backing tracks" for bands. So, we'll be needing to retain some rights (ownership) of the recorded material, which probably means some form of a synchronization license.
Any lawyerly drummers on here that can help?
