Based in Durham, North Carolina, The Glow Management is rapidly becoming one of the most prestigious artist representation agencies in the world. Featuring acts like Bowerbirds, Phil Cook, Wye Oak, Sylvan Esso, and more, they have helped build and support a community of musicians that puts their humanity before commerce and that strive for sustainability over brief flirtations with success.
Rusty Sutton, one of the principles and founders of The Glow, sits down with us to talk about the state of the industry, how to build a scene in the 21st Century, and why supporting your community isn’t just how we are going to make it out of this crisis intact, it is how we can build a better music industry heading into the future.
