  • Grace James
    Apr 24 2020

    Right place, right time. That’s how Grace James explains her start in the music industry. She randomly caught a music business panel at NYU, “got up the nerve” to “ask for an internship,” stayed up all night putting together a resume for J Records, and “that's really, really where it started.”

    James, now vice president of marketing for Atlantic Records, walks listeners through this journey, including how she balances selling both a product and someone’s “craft”; how she handles the complex timelines, calendars and schedules of multiple projects; and how she also became a fitness blogger.

    This is the story of Grace James.

  • Caiti Green
    Apr 10 2020

    When interning at different music labels and PR companies around New York City in her early days, Caiti Green had a very simple diet. “I'm completely, 100% serious when I tell you I ate Ramen, and grilled cheese, and eggs everyday because that's what I could afford.” But hearing her talk passionately today about her position at Atlantic Records as a marketing director, you can tell the sacrifice was worth it.

    Now, she finds herself creating timelines and marketing plans around releases, all the while staying true to the art. “It's super important to me that things come off authentic and that we can break that major label stigma.”

    This is the story of Caiti Green.

    When Gina Tucci’s musician and producer father would present work to A&R at labels, at times they would "rip apart the records.” But Tucci had an unexpected reaction to observing this. “After a while, I kind of realized, that’s kind of cool...you get to listen to music all day and pick apart the songs to make them better.”

    It’s that spirit for critique and exploration that’s led Tucci to her current positions of Big Beat Records General Manager and a Vice President of A&R at Atlantic Records. Listen in as she details her path through the music industry, including what advice she’d give to young music professionals, and how she got involved with her “first big record ever”: B.o.B’s “Airplanes.”

    This is the story of Gina Tucci.
