About this episode
This week on Rockonteurs we take a fascinating look behind the business of music.
Music merchandise is a multi-million-dollar empire, and everyone has their favourite band T-shirt, but where did it start and how does it impact the bands and artist estates that it benefits. Norman Perry runs one of the most successful music merchandise companies Perryscope and he protects the image and merchandise rights for artists like Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Genesis, Tom Petty, David Bowie, and Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets to name but a few.
Norman has worked with so many of the greatest artists of all time and in this episode, he shares tales of a life behind the scenes working with the great and godlike and how he helps to keep the fan connection alive for so many of our favourite acts.
