About us

The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) is a professional membership organization of songwriters, composers and music publishers of every kind of music. ASCAP's mission is to license and promote the music of its members and foreign affiliates, obtain fair compensation for the public performance of their works and to distribute the royalties that it collects based upon those performances. ASCAP members write the world's best-loved music and ASCAP has pioneered the efficient licensing of that music to hundreds of thousands of enterprises who use it to add value to their business - from bars, restaurants and retail, to radio, TV and cable, to Internet, mobile services and more. The ASCAP license offers an efficient solution for businesses to legally perform ASCAP music while respecting the right of songwriters and composers to be paid fairly. With over 925,000 members representing more than 11.5 million copyrighted works, ASCAP is the worldwide leader in performance royalties, service and advocacy for songwriters and composers, and the only American performing rights organization (PRO) owned and governed by its writer and publisher members. www.ascap.com

    Icelandic-Chinese jazz star Laufey’s "Christmas Magic" debuts on the 2024 ASCAP Top New Classic Holiday Songs chart 💙✨❄️ The enchanting track is featured in the new Amazon MGM Studios film 🎥 Red One, starring Dwayne Johnson, Chris Evans, Kiernan Shipka, Lucy Liu and more! When Amazon MGM Studios approached Laufey to craft a nostalgic, timeless Christmas song for the film, she couldn’t help but say yes: “[Red One] has this Icelandic witch in it who is played by my friend, Kiernan Shipka, so it all felt quite serendipitous!” Laufey found inspiration in her producer’s young daughters, who hadn’t yet experienced the magic of Christmas. “I wrote a list of all the things I loved about Christmas growing up, the things I find funny and lovely about it, and that’s how the song came about.”
