York College of Pennsylvania: Music Industry Panel Discussion

The music industry is constantly changing. New technology creates an ever-changing paradigm, leaving business and legal experts struggling to keep pace. Both students and professionals must remain current and forward-thinking, as they attempt to navigate the new landscape. What is the future of popular music? How will music be produced and consumed in the next 10 years? What about copyright, licensing, and other sectors of the entertainment industry? Our experts will discuss music publishing, live events, and the record industry. The panel will include Chad Taylor (founding member and guitarist for rock band LIVE); David Sestak (founder of Media Five Entertainment and manager for the bands LIVE and Fuel); Anne Sturm (General Manager, Strand-Capitol Performing Arts Center); and Brad Prendergast (Senior Counsel for Licensing & Enforcement, SoundExchange, Inc.).
