Hypebot’s Bruce Houghton Joins MidemNet Board

I’m proud to have been asked to join the Visionary Chair Committee that guides what has become the world’s premier meeting of the music and technology communities, MidemNet.

The other members of the committee are the true visionaries, but my hope is that my experience running booking agency Skyline Music, helping our clients navigate today’s tricky landscape and the research and writing of Hypebot have given me a unique perspective that will add to the conversation.  I’m also counting on the community of Hypebot readers help guide me.
