The music industry can be difficult to navigate. The boundaries between personal and professional life are often blurred, and understanding the different mechanisms and roles can be challenging.
That’s why SPOT+ invites you to a Q&A session where industry professionals will share insights into how they operate and what their roles entail—while giving the audience the opportunity to ask questions.
No question is too small, and the goal is to foster greater understanding and transparency in an often complex industry.
Get answers to questions like:
- How is SPOT Festival booked?
- What does a booker/manager do?
- What is the role of a label/music publisher?
- How does streaming work?
