The Simple Band Contract serves as a foundational legal document for musical groups operating in Austria, establishing clear terms and conditions for band operations. This contract type is particularly suited for emerging or established bands seeking to formalize their working relationship under Austrian law. It addresses crucial aspects such as band membership, revenue sharing, intellectual property rights, and performance obligations while ensuring compliance with Austrian entertainment law, copyright regulations (UrhG), and social security provisions (K-SVFG). The document is designed to prevent potential disputes by clearly defining roles, responsibilities, and decision-making processes, making it an essential tool for professional musical collaborations in the Austrian jurisdiction.
