Gerry McKenna and Roger Smith are royalty specialists who have produced and examined thousands of royalty statements for both major and independent record and publishing companies.
Gerry was a Director of Mute Records in the UK and has worked within the royalty administration of PolyGram Music Video, Charisma Records and Mushroom in the UK and Europe. In Australia she headed the royalty department of Mushroom Records and Publishing.
In 2000, Gerry McKenna established Royalty Accounting Services in Melbourne after recognising the need for an independent royalty auditing and statement production service in Australia. Since then she has tracked royalties all over the globe for clients who range in size from small independent companies to major international recording artists.
Roger Smith was Royalty Manager of Sony Music in Australia for 23 years. However the recent success of independent artists, in Australia and overseas, inspired him to open the Sydney office of Royalty Accounting Services. Roger gives clients the benefit of his extensive knowledge of Australian music industry royalty issues and his ability to work through the complex worldwide royalty issues of major record companies.
Roger's experience enhances the excellent reputation that Gerry has established with Royalty Accounting Services.
