The state of: Management

Like many roles in the music industries, the Artist Management sector has few - if any - barriers to entry; all you need to do to become an Artist Manager is to tell people you are. How can managers navigate such a complex business and such complex interpersonal relationships, and what role do our ethics play in this? How far will we go for our artists? How much of ourselves are we prepared to give to them and their careers?

This panel seeks to untangle the delicate and often challenging intricacies of the artist/manager dynamic, in an increasingly crowded and competitive marketplace.
