Iron Man Records offers specialist legal advice to anyone involved in music through Kevan Tidy at Tidylaw. Before working with Iron Man records Kevan was a musician and a songwriter. He encountered the usual problems and attempted scams of the record industry and had to develop an interest and expertise in contracts and copyright.

Your Darkest Thought. State Funding and Music, You have been warned.
I was thinking about writing my own piece on this but then I found myself at The Adelphi in Hull with Dufus.
