This Session Musician Work-for-Hire Agreement sets clear terms for hiring a player to record parts for a master. It defines scope, rates, overtime, cartage, buyout, ownership, delivery, and credit so the session runs smoothly.
Use it for studio, remote, and live capture sessions. The template includes tables for session details and take logs, work-for-hire and assignment language, cancellation rules, confidentiality, and warranties.
Written in professional plain language and aligned with common industry practice. Adapt the fee model, usage buyout, and union status to match the project and jurisdiction.
