Ben Mawson (Dua Lipa): Releasing a hit album at the start of a global pandemic‪.‬ How Did You Manage That?

    • Music

We return! In the year that has already caused seismic changes to life, let alone the music industry, we (Sophie and Ally) are back with a new series of conversation with the best and the brightest music managers operating right now around the world. We start with a biggie - Ben Mawson, co-CEO of Tap Management, who look after Dua Lipa, Lana Del Ray and an impressive roster of global talent. Ben gives us the intel on Dua Lipa’s 2020 album campaign, one of the first big acts to release (a globally chart topping) album in a pandemic world, to great success, but with a lot of big decisions to be made. The former lawyer also tells the story of meeting Lana in New York, long before Video Games, and how they’ve grown together. So many insights, so many stories, it’s good to be back in your feed. 

How Did You Manage That? Is a podcast made by Ally Mccrae and Sophie Paluch, in partnership with the Music Managers Forum, for the good of managers, musicians and aspiring industry pros of the future. https://themmf.net/

We also bring you a new feature this series thanks to an excellent music and media startup Small Green Shoots, who will be tipping us with a new act we should know about right now from their office stereo. Check them out at https://www.smallgreenshoots.co.uk/
