TMT:55 Alistair Norbury On Taking Kylie And Rick Astley To New Heights, Plus Catalogue Acquisitions Done Right

Welcome to The Money Trench! This week, Mark is joined by Alistair Norbury, President of UK, Europe and Asia-Pacific at BMG. 

Together, they explore how one of the world’s biggest music companies is rethinking deals, rights, and the artist-label relationship.

From signing Kylie Minogue, Louis Tomlinson, and Craig David, to reviving classic catalogues from Black Sabbath, The Kinks, and Gary Numan, Alistair walks us through BMG’s artist-friendly ethos and global strategy.
