Statement of significant interest
Global Music Rights, LLC (“GMR”) is a performing rights society that represents many of today’s most popular music creators in the public performance licensing of their musical compositions. Founded in 2013 as the first Performing Rights Organization (“PRO”) in the United States in nearly 75 years, GMR quickly became a “fourth contender in the performance rights arena, with an impressive client list roster.” See U.S. Copyright Office, Copyright and the Music Marketplace, at 150 (2015), available at https://copyright.gov/docs/musiclicensingstudy/copyright-and-the-music-marketplace.pdf. GMR’s affiliated songwriters, composers, and music publishers have works licensed under Section 115 of the Copyright Act. As an organization that strives to advance the interests of its community of affiliated songwriters, composers, and music publishers, GMR has a significant interest in the subject matter of this proceeding.
