About IMPU
We are a group of music professionals, formed in December 2019, that advocates for independent musicians, composers, songwriters, producers, engineers, and others in the industry who haven’t traditionally had a seat at the political negotiating table. Initially formed to secure an exemption for the music industry under California’s “gig worker” law AB5, the group met with legislators, penned op-eds, appeared in countless news programs and were present in negotiations advocating on behalf of independent California music professionals. Now that we have been successful in the AB5 fight, IMPU uses the foundation built through this process (with 185,000 signatories on our petition), to advocate on behalf of independent music professionals nationwide.
