After not having read their contract too closely, Sean from Tullycraft awoke one morning to find their song “Sweet” used to sell food. What’s worse than having your song in a commercial? Not getting paid for it.

It was brought to my attention a little over a week ago that the Tullycraft song “Sweet” was being used in a television commercial for Wienerschnitzel. I found this very shocking because I knew nothing about these ads. We hadn’t been contacted by Wienerschnitzel or any agency representing them. After a little research, it was discovered that the record label that had re-issued our first album “Old Traditions, New Standards” had licensed the song without asking our permission or even contacting us about it. Ultimately, I guess this is my fault. When HARRIET RECORDS went under and we were approached about re-issuing “Old Traditions, New Standards,” I thought… “sure!” I didn’t anticipate being told: “Read your contract. We don’t have to ask your permission to license your songs.”
