Piers Henwood – Amelia Artists
For today’s episode, I’m thrilled to get a chance to chat with Piers Henwood of Amelia Artists. Piers started out as a musician, playing in the band Jets Overhead before, as so many artist managers eventually end up doing, crossing over to the dark side of artist management. All kidding aside, Piers’s vantage point on management is uniquely rooted in his time as a musician; informing his business endeavors in Amelia Artists and Recordings. He also had the good fortune of working with Tegan & Sara for the first 20 years or so of their career, gaining valuable insight from mentors such as Elliot Roberts. Those experiences are some of the many stories and perspectives he regularly shares through his writing and on his blog. We’re fortunate to have him for a sliver of time to discuss all this together today.
