Episode 19 - Evan Bogart (The Record Business)

SPONSORS: Analog Machine + Tri-Beam Productions

The son of a famed music executive who signed KISS and Donna Summer in the 70s, Evan Bogart went from Interscope intern in the 90s that helped Eminem get signed, to a songwriter in the 2000s that penned hits for Rihanna and Beyonce. He’s currently the CEO of Seeker Music, which owns catalogs from artists like Run The Jewel, Jon Bellion, and Mark Morrison.

I had a chat with Evan about his progression in the music industry and the kind of work Seeker is doing to carve out a space for itself in the business.
