Hi everybody and welcome to another episode of The Talk Music Podcast.
I’m absolutely thrilled to post this wonderful chat with STEVE KANE, who just recently stepped down as PRESIDENT OF WARNER MUSIC CANADA where he orchestrated tremendous success for the label for over 20 years.
Steve not only led the daily operations of the company, but also oversaw the signings of BILLY TALENT, SCOTT HELMAN and the re-signing of BLUE RODEO, to name a few. We dive deep into how he earned his stripes as president, starting his career on Yonge St. at an indie record shop and being mentored by some of the greats in our business. We also chat about his current involvement, including MAKE MUSIC MATTER and SING. We round out our discussion with a bit of insight on how to navigate the music biz these days as an up-and-coming artist.
I loved this chat with Steve, he really is one of the GOOD guys out there. I look forward to bumping into him somewhere where music lives!
As an added bonus, I've included some of Steve’s musical faves that he listens to at home.
Enjoy!
