What is Good Dog?

Good Dog is a student-run licensing organization developed by Northeastern University students, Green Line Records, and Northeastern professor David Herlihy. Professor Herlihy is a professor in both the College of Arts, Media, and Design at Northeastern, and at the Law School, runs his own entertainment law practice, and frequently writes and records original music. Students in Professor Herlihy’s Music Licensing for Media course work with Good Dog Licensing throughout the semester, gaining hands-on experience in A&R, Music Supervision, and Music Licensing.

What is Green Line Records?

Green Line Records is Northeastern University's student-driven record label. GLR aims to accelerate the careers of emerging artists by offering their diverse lineup of artists a full range of services including studio and live recording, marketing, merchandising, booking, and management. Green Line’s licensing department works closely with Good Dog to supervise and license unique multimedia projects.

What makes Good dog “GOOD”?

Good Dog isn’t in it for the money. Really. Good Dog aspires to “connect creatives.” Artists working with Good Dog Licensing will retain 100% of all copyrights in their music. Participation in Good Dog Licensing will be non-exclusive, artists will be able to withdraw their music at any time, all placements will be subject to the artist’s approval, and media makers are required to submit cue sheets.

What Does Connecting Creatives Mean? 

“Connecting Creatives” means facilitating collaboration between Media Makers and Artists. Good Dog wants to get talented artists in contact with skilled media makers to create impactful synchronizations.
