A&R: The Craft of Making Records at a Major Label

Friday, March 18
5:00PM - 6:00PM

Austin Convention Center
Room 17A
531 E 4th St

Meet with a large section of the bicoastal Atlantic Records A&R staff who work across pop, rock, alternative, urban and country. They will go over how artists can submit music and what they should be doing prior to sending along songs, and then what will happen when they do get a record deal. The team will discuss how they go about making decisions on what songs to put on the albums, what producers to use, and which songwriters to pair up with particular artists. Learn the different ways albums are made at a modern day major label and how to be a part of it.
