Everyone’s talking about “superfans,” but artist management companies have been focused on their top fans for quite some time. We sat down with Jonathan Daniel from Crush Music. They manage Green Day, Miley Cyrus, Sia, Weezer, Fall Out Boy, Train, and others.
We talk about Coachella, touring strategies, how they use data, business ventures and more. I also ask JD about acquisition offers, why they focus on rock and pop acts, and a whole lot more.
We dive into the realities of managing creatives, building trust within teams, and striking the balance between creative freedom and structure.
We also introduced a new segment to the show called “Market Moves” with our producer, Eric!
