If you haven’t thanked them lately, I suggest you call them after reading this and say, “Have I told you lately how much I appreciate you?” This week’s guest is Allen Stone’s Manager, BJ Olin of Red Light Management.Red Light is one of the most innovative artist management companies in the industry with offices in New York, Los Angeles, Charlottesville, Nashville, Atlanta, Bristol and London.
A Manager’s DNA is not like most mortals; that’s probably why there are so few.The passion, dedication, selflessness of putting oneself second, loss of sleep, money, and sometimes relationships in the pursuit of achieving your Artist’s dream and vision in an Industry where the odds are stacked against you may make some question your sanity and, at times, so do you until you watch your Artist “kill” a room and then you remember why you’re there. It can sometimes be a thankless job and nothing raises my Irish more than an Artist who doesn’t publicly thank their Manager, especially at The Grammys.It’s the Manager who will remain with you through thick and thin, because you’re building something together right?It's very well done and different, yet it somehow all seems to work together as different aspects of Meyers' sound—she's both rock chick and pop star, kind of like Miley Cyrus or Katy Perry.I'm not gonna lie, this song is a low-key banger, especially if you're 14, your crush hasn't written back to your text, and you're angsty as hell.
