Music Licensing for Municipalities

We help you ensure that your city can legally play music in city-owned recreational facilities, such as swimming pools, arenas, parks, and events, while supporting music creators. By obtaining the necessary RE:SOUND and SOCAN annual music licenses through Entandem, you can help music owners in your community earn royalties for their valuable work.  

Here’s how we simplify the music licensing process for you: 

  • An annual flat fee that covers all your facilities’ music throughout the year.  
  • Spend less time tracking and reporting music use for each facility.  
  • Experience a no-fuss annual renewal process.  
  • Be proud to be known as a music city in your province. 

Why music licensing matters:

Getting the right music licenses like RE:SOUND and SOCAN through Entandem is essential. These licenses ensure that music creators are properly recognized and paid for their work. They let you use music legally and ethically, which helps support the music industry. Without them, business owners and operators could face legal trouble for copyright infringement.

Let’s work together.
