Abbey Road Studios marks 90 years by holding festival for future music makers
London’s famous Abbey Road studios marked its 90th anniversary with a festival of events.
“Abbey Road Amplify” was held on Nov. 11 and 12. The festival featured free masterclasses with leading producers and sound engineers.
The Amplify sessions and talks were aimed at people starting out in the industry.
“We do stand on the shoulders of giants, we’ve had so many amazing names through this place so we need to celebrate that,” said Isabel Garvey, Abbey Road Studios’ managing director.
The studio has made legendary recordings for greats such as the Beatles, Pink Floyd, Amy Winehouse and Adele.
“How are we going to be as famous in 90 years’ time? We need to capture the hearts and minds of the next generation,” said Garvey. “We need to be really relevant.” (Reuters)
Rapper Travis Scott’s rowdy past raises red flags in Astroworld lawsuits
Lawsuits piled up less than a week after the deadly crowd crush at the Astroworld concert, and legal experts said the risk is mounting that juries could decide against rapper Travis Scott and the companies behind the tragic Nov. 5 event in Houston.
At the center of the legal maelstrom is Travis Scott, famous for whipping fans into a frenzy.
Several legal experts told The Associated Press that Scott’s past incitement of concertgoers offers a history that could make it easier to pursue negligence claims against companies that planned and managed the show, which killed some people and left hundreds injured. And although the investigations have just begun, experts expect dozens more lawsuits seeking damages that could climb into hundreds of millions of dollars. (AP)
