Today on the Music Business Podcast we invited Jean-Sebastien Permal the Director of A&R for Sony Music Continental Europe and Africa. In 2017 Jean Sebastian joined Sony Music Germany’s label, Four Music, before broadening his A&R role for all Sony Music labels across Europe and Africa in 2018. Over the past two years, Permal has worked closely with Sony Music’s labels on a variety of artist projects in the region, all while supporting Sony Music Continental Europe and Africa’s A&R executives.


In this episode we discuss 

As an A&R, what does your day to day look like? What’s the split between discovering and signing artists, vs. helping your existing roster create great music with great collaborators?When you’re at such a high level as an A&R, what are some of your conversations or day-to-day responsibilities like?
