Why Music Publishing Matters for Musicians In India: The Elizabeth Music Group Approach

The Indian music industry is evolving at lightning speed. Independent artists, composers, and producers now have more opportunities than ever but also more complexity to navigate. In a landscape dominated by streaming platforms, record labels, and fast-shifting digital trends, one element remains massively underestimated in India:

Music publishing.

At Elizabeth Music Group, our mission is to empower creators by helping them protect their rights, collect their royalties, and unlock global opportunities from sync licensing to collaborations, to education and career development.

For Indian musicians, publishing isn’t just helpful… it’s essential.

Why Music Publishing Is Critical for Musicians in India

1. You’re Leaving Money on the Table Without It

Most Indian musicians never collect:

  • Publishing royalties

  • Global performance royalties

  • Mechanical royalties

  • Sync licensing revenue

These royalties are generated every time your music is streamed, played, performed, or placed somewhere around the world. Without a strong publishing partner, a huge portion of that income never makes it back to you.

2. India Has Global Talent - But Limited Publishing Education

India’s music creators are producing world-class work across Bollywood, indie, hip-hop, devotional, electronic, regional, and commercial music.
But most haven’t been taught:

  • How copyright splits work

  • How to register works

  • How to collect international royalties

  • How sync licensing actually functions

  • What publishing deals should (and shouldn’t) look like

Elizabeth Music Group fills that gap with transparent systems, education, and hands-on support.

What Makes Elizabeth Music Group Different?

✔ Monthly Publishing Payouts (Not Twice a Year)

Unlike many publishing companies that pay semi-annually or quarterly, Elizabeth Music Group pays our writers every month we receive royalties for your songs.
Creators deserve consistent income - not waiting 6–12 months for their money.

Our global publishing network ensures:

  • Faster royalty processing

  • Faster payouts

  • Complete transparency

✔ Sync Licensing Opportunities Around the World

Indian creators are massively underrepresented in global sync opportunities. Elizabeth Music Group actively pitches our writers’ catalogs for:

  • Film & streaming

  • Ads

  • TV networks

  • Brands

  • Video games

  • Social content

  • International markets

Our growing sync team helps Indian musicians get into rooms and opportunities that are typically hard to access without international infrastructure.

✔ An Exclusive Elizabeth Music Group Discord Community

We believe publishing should empower, not isolate. Our Discord community gives writers:

  • Direct access to the EMG team and CEO TheZachMichael

  • Sync briefs

  • Q&A sessions

  • Feedback channels

  • Co-writing opportunities

  • Business education

  • Networking with other producers & songwriters

It’s a real creative community - not just a contract.
