Friday, May 1, 2015 Sync Up Conference The George and Joyce Wein Jazz & Heritage Center, New Orleans Keynote Interview: Thirty Tigers CEO David Macias How can an indie artist release his/her own records, sell boatloads of copies, get tons of press and score Grammy nominations? Simple: Get signed by the Nashville-based distribution and marketing company Thirty Tigers. If you've got even a hint of twang in your sound, they own your genre. Witness the success of Jason Isbell, Aaron Watson and Sturgill Simpson - yep, all released as indies via Thirty Tigers, which is now also home to the New Orleans-based Kristin Diable. We talk to co-founder and CEO David Macias about how artists can own their own masters and still make it big. David Macias, Co-Founder and CEO, Thirty Tigers (Nashville, TN) Moderator: Scott Aiges, the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation
