Joining us from Ireland, this week we have Musician, director and owner of Irish based AMA Agency Audionetworks.ie, Podcast and Talent Agency, Mark Downing on The Sync Report.

Growing up in a musical environment, Mark was surely destined to work in music. In this week’s podcast episode, he tells us how he started out as a live agent and artist manager in the music industry.

Mark talks about the changing landscape of the music industry and how now it incorporates a lot more revenue streams. Hear how he came to be working with Irish singer Paddy Casey and representing artists including Moya Brennan, Blind Boy, Rubber Bandits, Strange Boy and many others for over 26 years.

Listen as we discuss emerging bands and playing corporate gigs as well as NFTs and their place in the music industry.

Then stay tuned for more NFT and Metaverse chat with YxungWizard & Dan Thomas, as well as Lionel Lodge talking about how he came to create Sync Lodge, his sync licensing & project management platform for music supervisors and visual production teams.

Plus we listen to music sync submissions from Midas Royal, Joshua Bonnet and Lance Fleming for Kevin Sharpley’s new indie movie “Deadly Night Out”. If you’d like to submit for this opportunity send your music to tsrsyncs@gmail.com (Subject: Film Briefs).
