The 360 Deal: Is This The End Of The Industry As We Know It
2pm Saturday @ The Main Hall, RDS, Dublin
A-list artists such as U2, Madonna and Jay-Z have signed long-term deals with promoter Live Nation covering areas such as merchandising, publishing, touring and recording. Is this set to become a widespread trend in the immediate future? Is it a viable model for smaller artists? And what’s the upshot for the music industry as a whole?
Panellists including Alan Cullivan (manager, The Thrills), Edison Waters (manager, Laura Izibor) and Dave Robinson (Stiff Records) were on hand to discuss these key questions about the future of the music business.
