As the name of this platform boldly states, we present really smart people who do amazing work in the music business. This has never been more true than this episode presenting two Ivy Leaguers, who are both highly successful digital music experts and all around nice guys.
Joseph Perla is the founder and CEO of Hangout.fm., which is part of Turntable Labs. Previously he's held senior level tech roles at Meta and Lyft, as well as co-founding two other successful tech start-ups. Simply put, he is one of the most impressive people I've ever met.
Lars Murray is well known on this platform and throughout the music industry. An early advocate for streaming, he's held senior roles in major record labels (Columbia and Virgin) and led the partnership team at Pandora. He is currently running his own digital consultancy and produces the Unlimited Supply podcast, which should be part of your daily routine.
In addition to our normal 1 x 1 conversation, plan to stick around for a few extra minutes for a live demo of Hangout.fm.
Please join us for what will be the best hour of your week. I promise you will leave smarter and more inspired than you arrived.
