American music industry analyst, broadcaster, podcaster and blogger Bob Lefsetz will deliver the keynote address at the 2019 Australian Music Week conference in Sydney in November.
Lefsetz has generated a global following for his honest and accurate evaluation of the music industry roller-coaster. His conclusions on the current state of the music industry are often met with scorn by industry heavyweights and at the same time applause from artists for having the guts to say what he says.
Bob will record several podcasts from during the event.
Australian Music Week will also hold the Sydney premiere of Tommy Emmanuel’s ‘The Endless Road’ album. The 80-minute documentary was directed by Jeremy Dylan and produced by Jaime Lewis.
