Music removals due to SESAC fees

Bad news for Aural Moon. SESAC, an organization that "represents" various songwriters and publishers, is trying to collect onerous fees from Aural Moon. I cannot afford to pay these fees, so I need to remove SESAC affiliated artists from the playlist.

So far, these artists are:
Alan Parsons
Mannheim Steamroller

there may also be individual songs that need to be removed - one example is a Manfred Mann song that was written by Bob Dylan.

If anyone has a way to contact these artists directly and obtain written permission for Aural Moon to play their music, that is the only way I know of to prevent their removal.

Sorry.
