“It’s gone from label power to artist power. You’re seeing across the board - at major labels, artist services, whatever - the deals are now shorter, but you have to show up and deliver. AWAL has always had the philosophy that artists have freedom, and if you’re going to give them freedom, they might not always decide what you want them to." Matt Riley , Victoria Needs , and Sam Potts recently sat down with Music Week to talk about AWAL's role in the evolution of the music business. https://lnkd.in/guuw_cej
