Roundhouse Rising this week, including CMU:DIY day
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 17 February 2014
The Roundhouse Rising festival takes place this week at the legendary London venue, and as previously reported, that includes the latest CMU:DIY day, taking place on Sunday (23 Feb).
Hosted by CMU Business Editor Chris Cooke, this day will explain how the business side of an artist’s career works, and crucially how acts can turn their content, performance and ‘fan relationship’ into revenue. The second half of the day will look at how new artists connect with music companies, what role the label plays, and how deals are done.
A stack of great artists and industry experts will be on hand to share their advice and experience, including DIY acts Gabby Young, Laura Kidd and MJ Hibbett plus artist manager James Barton, music lawyer Adam Brown, Music Glue’s Mark Meharry, Sony Music’s Fred Bolza, [PIAS]’s Pip Newby and Alcopop!’s Jack Pop.
Full info of the day is online here, while tickets can be booked here.
