“The New Music seminar led an insurgency that ushered in a new generation of music business leaders. The 21st century music business sorely needs that spirit again. The first NMS showed us how to hotwire the family Cadillac. The next NMS will show us how to choose the best hybrid on the lot.”
Roland Swenson
