On this episode, we’re diving into the side of the industry that keeps everything running—business management and entertainment law. Tate Henshaw and Farrah Usmani break down the hidden costs of touring, must-know contracts, when to bring in a lawyer, and why ChatGPT shouldn’t be your legal team.
Tate Henshaw is the Co-Founder of ARC, a business management firm based in Atlanta. He works with everyone from Grammy-winning musicians like Ne-Yo to NBA All-Stars like Blake Griffin, helping them navigate financial planning, taxes, royalty tracking, tour budgeting, and long-term wealth strategy. Named one of the Top 40 Accountants under 40, Tate is shaping a more transparent, tech-forward future for creatives.
Farrah Usmani is an entertainment attorney based in Nashville who advises everyone from indie artists to chart-toppers on how to grow their careers without giving away their rights. She’s negotiated with every major label and music publisher, worked on major touring and streaming deals, and has been featured in Billboard, Variety, and The Tennessean for her work on everything from tour contracts to AI voice protection.
