What does the music industry really sell?

(TEDx Talks) What the music industry really sells is explained by Erik Mehlsen at TEDxRPLCentralLibrary, 4/15/19.

The music business is a business. The business of music has changed. Audiences have new ways of connecting to music, and artists have new ways of connecting with their audience. This has caused a shift in the culture and the sense of community that comes from music. In his talk, Mehlsen uses his experience as an artist and touring musician to examine the journey that the music industry has been on and where it’s going next.

ABOUT: Erik Mehlsen is a musician, author, speaker, teacher, and music producer. His primary artistic outlet is a project called “Del Suelo,” which combines music and literature. In September of 2018, he released a novel and album called “The Musician’s Compass: A 12 Step Programme” that talks about the extreme highs and lows of the life of a touring musician. Over the past four years, Del Suelo has toured across Canada, the US, Germany, and the UK extensively as a solo act and as a trio. He also collaborates with other musical acts as a songwriter and sideman. He is also passionate about building musical community and teaches a guitar-theory Jam once a month in Regina. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at TED.com/tedx.
