Live Performance Returns (LPRs) are APRA’s unique system for our members to report their live performances. They’re an essential step in receiving royalty payments – they tell us what has been performed, where it’s been performed, and how often it’s been performed live.
If you perform original music live, then you’re entitled to royalty payments. But you need to
tell us!

Live Performance Returns (LPRs) are APRA’s unique system for our members to report their
live performances. They’re an essential step in receiving royalty payments – they tell us what
you’ve performed, where you’ve performed, and how often you’ve performed live.

Last year, APRA collected over $3.78 million which was distributed to our members and
members of our affiliated societies for their live performances.

It’s easy to submit an LPR – just log in on the APRA|AMCOS website, www.apra-
amcos.com.au, and head to the writer login area to complete your Live Performance Return
for the 10-11 financial year (1 July 2010-31 June 2011). Submit it by August 31, and you’ll be
paid in November

Need Help with your LPR?
To help with the process, we’re hosting LPR Connecting Members meetings around the
country during August. Your local Writer Services representatives will be on hand to guide
you through the LPR process.

The Music Industry’s Finest Trade Secrets and Stories About Touring Australia and Beyond!

Following on from Sydney’s Song Summit, Wednesday 23rd June will see the world’s leading music managers and Australia’s strongest music industry members all coming together at Notes Newtown to trade secrets and stories about Touring Australia and Beyond.

The Association of Artist Managers (AAM) is the peak industry body for the Australian Music Community, representing Australia’s professional music managers. The AAM brings together the industry’s leading music managers to address the issues facing managers and their artists, and relate these crucial issues to the government and industry, to safeguard Australian Music and Music Managers.

Touring Australia and Beyond Seminar address everything a music manager needs to know about touring logistics in Australia, including with a crew, on an extensive tour route and stepping it up a notch to tour internationally. If this isn’t enough incentive for up and coming managers to get along, a very exciting opportunity is up for grabs with one lucky pre-sale ticket buyer going into the draw for a gig package which could kick start their career. The winner will be chosen at random and announced on the night – The package includes: A headlining bill at Notes Live in Newtown, a three quarter page advert in Sydney’s Drum Media along with a mini-feature or Interview to support the event, A quarter page advert in The Brag and a two week campaign, including 20 thirty-second radio spots on Sydney’s FBI Radio.

The AAM looks to work side by side with other organisations throughout Australia in the areas of education and mentoring, lending the experience of its members to State Music Associations, the MMF, Songwriter Associations, Industry bodies and others in the hope that these partnerships will help strengthen the management industry in Australia for the benefit of all Australian artists.
