Frequently Asked Question
Can I change my artist name?
Last Updated 3 months ago
Changing your artist name is a significant decision that can impact your brand and public perception; however, it is essential to understand the implications it has on your existing releases.
Once an artist name is signed on a release, it becomes part of the official record, and unfortunately, you cannot simply change it retroactively. This process involves more than just a name adjustment; it necessitates the creation of new artwork, updated artist information, and a revised contract to reflect the change.
Additionally, there are administrative costs associated with this transition, as it requires the takedown of the current release and the republishing of the work under the new name. This can be a complex and time-consuming process, potentially affecting your distribution and visibility in the industry.
