MMF Weekly Roundup

26 April 2024

A weekly summary of events and resources for music managers.

 

We were at the Young Music Boss Awards last night presenting the Best Manager award to the incredibly deserving Wesley Banton (D Block Europe)! It’s always a pleasure being part of their awards, championing talented individuals who are going to shape the future of the music industry.

 

We were also at BPI’s In Tune with Tomorrow event this week, where Shadow Culture Secretary Thangam Debbonaire spoke about the commitment of Labour to the UK music industry and fair pay for all.

 

We attended the Creative UK manifesto launch, where actor Adrian Lester spoke passionately about the importance of creativity.
