Gospel music legend Bebe Winans and Godfather of Go-Go Chuck Brown will be on Capitol Hill stumping for legislation that would provide artists royalties for their songs played on AM and FM radio. House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers, D-Mich., will host the pair at an afternoon gathering of the Congressional Black Caucus.
Earlier in the day, a group of artists and musicians (instruments in hand) will kick off the day of lobbying on behalf of the musicFirst alliance -- a group backed by digital royalty collector SoundExchange, RIAA, and other music industry groups.
