Of course, the focus of 2020 was very different for Loeb’s music industry clients —and for the firm’s lawyers— as the industry faced massive disruptions as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Loeb’s long-standing experi- ence and relationships, as well as its cultural emphasis on innovation and resilience, were key to the firm’s ability to lead clients through the crisis.
“After almost 18 months of addressing reorganizational and restructuring issues, we are excited about the return of live entertainment, whether it is for our many active touring
  lishers’ Association, Citibank, the Estate of B.B. King, 19 Entertainment (American Idol) and the T.J. Martell Foundation in legal and business matters involving corporate governance, employment, legacy planning, brand protection, trademarks, copyrights, rights of publicity, records and publishing, as well as in industrywide policy and advo- cacy efforts.
The firm’s roster of songwriter, producer and publisher clients is equally impressive. Loeb’s clients regularly dominate the Country airplay charts and include mul- tiple ASCAP and BMI Writers of the Year, Grammy, CMA Triple Play and ACM Award winners. Together, these writers
      Nationally, Loeb repre- sents, among many other clients, BTS, Diana Ross, Carrie Underwood,
Sam Hunt, The Who, The Revivalists, Gabby Barrett, Christina Aguilera, Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs, Kane Brown, Vince Gill, Amy Grant, Duran Duran, Billy Currington, Jordan Davis, Midland, Loretta Lynn and Melanie Martinez.
Loeb lawyers continue to represent key legacy artists, brands and nonprofits through their work with the John R. Cash Revocable Trust, the Estate
of Otis Redding, Jr., Olivia Newton-John, the Grand Ole Opry, the Academy of Country Music, the National Music Pub-
artists, our festival representa- tions (Superfly Events, Country Thunder and more) or the broad spectrum of experiential platforms—including sports— created or curated by our cli- ents,” says Frankenheimer.
Loeb’s lawyers are also longtime counsel to labels, publishers, execu- tives, and a variety of
innovative companies and financial institutions, includ- ing Warner Chappell, Warner Music Group, HYBE (formerly Big Hit Entertainment Co., Ltd.), Sony Music Publishing, Big Loud Records, Big Loud Shirt, Big Loud Mountain, Creative Nation, Primary Wave, Fuji Music Group, Tape Room, peermusic, Play It Again, Red Creative Group, 50 Egg Music, Spirit Music, Reservoir Music, Twelve6 Entertainment and MV2 Entertainment. For decades, the firm has also been a trusted advisor and resource for
a wide array of financial institu- tions in the investment com- munity including private-equity and venture-capital firms, banks and mutual funds, high-net- worth individuals and pension funds as they enter or expand their interests in the broad-based music industry.
“We are proud of the fact that we have built a unique plat- form from which our team can effectively represent and counsel the creative community as well as the financial community, can work on intricate recording or publishing deals for our creative clients and on the acquisition
or sale of IP catalogs of literally any size, or can assist companies in going public, whether by a traditional IPO, SPAC or other means,” says Frankenheimer.
“We are excited by what we believe the future will bring.” n
