Music Think Tank: New Group Blog
I've been a fan of Andrew Dubber and his New Music Strategies blog for about a year now, and I recently got the chance to chat with him and get to know him better. He's a smart guy with an interesting perspective on music, new media, and the changing entertainment landscape.

That's why I was thrilled when he invited me to join a new group blog he created called Music Think Tank. Check it out now at www.MusicThinkTank.com.
In addition to Andrew and me, contributors include Derek Sivers (CD Baby), Anthony Volodkin (Hype Machine), Bruce Warila (Unsprung Media), Ariel Hyatt (CyberPR), Syd Schwartz (Capitol Records), and more. Good company indeed.
See the complete list of Music Think Tank authors here.
It's off to a good start with diverse conversations about music trends and tactics. The cool thing is, since no one person has all the answers, we won't always agree with each other. Which makes it more interesting for readers and gives a wider perspective on each topic covered.
Check it out!
