10 Minute Country - Episode 43 - What Can the CMA Do To Help Country Music Survive in Europe?
Manage episode 310988899 series 3079601
It's CMA Fest in Nashville this weekend (June 8th) and as the town grinds to a halt, James considers what the CMA (Country Music Association) could do to aid and develop the growth of Country music across Europe and the wider world.
The past 6-7 years has seen a tremendous growth and interest in Country music in territories like the UK, Australia and Scandanavia but are we heading towards the ceiling and what can be done to avoid a plateauing or tailing off of interest in the genre? Who better than the CMA to step in with a guiding hand to make sure interest in Country music continues to expand?
So James puts forward a number of ideas and suggestions of how the CMA could get involved more with the artists, the fans and the profile of Country music outside of the Nashville bubble in order to sustain and grow the profile and ultimately make money out of this crazy genre that we love!
