They’re Playing Our Song (Without Our Permission): Music Law on the Campaign Trail
What does the law have to say about politicians’ unauthorized uses of songs and musicians’ objections to them? When are copyright, trademark, advertising and right of publicity law implicated in these disputes? At a discussion hosted by Northeastern Law’s Center for Law, Information and Creativity (CLIC) on October 1, 2024, Professor Kevin Casini explored these questions and more. Professor Casini is a member of the Recording Academy (known for their Grammy awards), the Music Business Association, the Copyright Alliance and the Americana Music Association. He teaches copyright, entertainment and arts law at Quinnipiac University School of Law. Professor Alexandra Roberts, faculty director of CLIC, moderated the event.
