original music. Darbolavi offers unique contracts that are not

equitable to musicians and songwriters found anywhere. Contracts,
whether they are for clubs, concerts, record contracts, studio work or
whatever the venue, are explained and all parties are encouraged to
seek legal advice before signing any agreement with Darbolavi Music
Publishing Co.. or any of its subsidiaries, specifically Three Cities
Entertainment which works with bands as managers and agents.

recording souirces; A&R reps etc. Clients are provided information
on joining industry affiliations once music is published such as BMI,

their careers even if they are not songwriters.

CURRENT ARTISTS: Go to the links page to view examples
of current artists , one which is a Classic Rock cover band and the

news.
TIPS: Keep intros of songs brief unless they are cover
tunes. Provide demos that are as close to production complete in your
view or record quality. Your best effort and production are required
for an honest review from our production department. Their decision
influences whether a contract is offered or not. This includes cover
bands or original. Just having a band does not mean you qualify for
work. Be prepared for constructive criticism. If rejected, you may
resubmit after making adjustments to our suggestions. Darbolavi
is here to help and encourage you to succeed in your music career.
