I had an amazing time last night at the A2IM Libera Awards with the SoundExchange team. Thank you to A2IM for hosting another great event celebrating excellence in the independent community.
Today I joined music legend and SoundExchange Board Member, David Byrne, on Capital Hill to discuss the American Music Fairness Act. This bipartisan bill would fix a decades-old injustice by requiring terrestrial radio to pay artists the royalties they deserve.
Join me at #CollisionConf in Toronto with FUNK YOURSELF's Dave 1 and P-Thugg, for a discussion exploring the future of music. We’ll explore the challenges and opportunities that come with our ever-changing industry. 📅Thursday June 20 🕒1:45 - 2:10 PM EDT 🔗: bit.ly/3VLt7tZ
Thank you Chloe Melas and FUNK YOURSELF for joining me in Toronto at #CollisionConf. It was great to talk about AI and the impact on the music industry from an artist and business perspective.
I had the pleasure of joining @RandyTravis and Mary Davis, true champions for artists' rights, as we met with Speaker Mike Johnson and Steve Scalise ahead of tomorrow's critical hearing on #AMFA. Thank you Randy for advocating on behalf of musicians everywhere.
Country star takes Capitol Hill! 🇺🇸🎤 We are proud to share that @RandyTravis has just arrived in D.C., ready to take a stand for artists everywhere. Tomorrow, Randy Travis and Michael Huppe will testify before Congress to advocate for the American Music Fairness Act. #AMFA
Honored to testify before Congress today with Randy Travis on the urgent need to pass the American Music Fairness Act. Artists deserve to be paid for their music played on AM/FM radio, and with #AMFA we can secure that.
My friend and SoundExchange Board Member David Byrne wrote a wonderful op-ed for @USAToday on the lack of legislation surrounding radio performance royalty compensation. Thank you David Byrne for your advocacy and support of #AMFA. Read more: bit.ly/3XVytEp
