What makes you uniquely qualified to discuss financial and artistic freedom for musicians?
I’m a 20+ year veteran of the music industry, having experience in production, licensing and running independent labels. Most recently I founded Recording Fund – a nonprofit, alternative funding model for independent music.
What is a crazy-but-true fact about you?
I can’t drive a stick-shift, I loath eye-drops and I have a stealth camper vehicle named Chateau Prius.
Why is financial literacy among musicians important to you?
What you don’t know will absolutely harm you.
What is one piece of advice you would impart on the audience?
Don’t just chase trends and hits song, understand the business of music.
