Music in Political Campaigns
Music and politics: a duet as old as time. From campaign trail anthems to iconic public moments, the power of music in shaping political narratives is undeniable. But what if artists don’t want their music to be used in a certain context?
In this episode of Audio Talks, host Oisin Lunny explores the powerful relationship between music and influence with Edgar Dino Gankendorff, Co-Managing Partner at Provosty & Gankendorff LLC and Richard Kirstein author of Music Rights Without Fights and founding partner at Resilient Music LLC. They discuss the role of music in shaping public narratives, from campaign anthems to cultural moments, and dive into the challenges artists face when their music is used without consent.

About Resilient Music, LLC
Founded by Richard Kirstein in 2010, Resilient Music helps brands buy music smarter.
Music Rights are complex and fragmented. Most advertisers struggle to understand the landscape so rely on their agencies to source and license tracks. Whilst this approach is often creatively led, it can lead to poor commercial outcomes.
Resilient empowers brands with smarter strategies to buy licensed music from rights owners. We help you get the music you want at a fair price.
Resilient’s philosophy on cost and risk management is explained in Richard Kirstein’s book Music Rights Without Fights. It’s the first and definitive guide on music licensing for brands.
