Slide Presentations

During Music Biz 2016, William Paterson University, a Music Biz member through our Academic Partnership Program, brought a class of 20 students to Nashville. Prior to traveling to Nashville, the class learned about networking and professionally getting past “gatekeepers” in order to make contacts in the industry. Once on-site in Nashville, the students conducted a number of interviews with industry leaders. The interviews were turned into podcasts for Music Biz 101 & More, the only radio show in America that focuses on the business side of the music and entertainment worlds. Hosted by William Paterson University’s Dr. Stephen Marcone & Professor David Philp, the show airs live each Wednesday at 8pm on WPSC-FM, Brave New Radio.
