  • Game on Talent Agents: More Than a Bargain
    September 19 2016, Issue 517 Talent Agents: More Than A Bargain Tom Cruise immortalized sports agents – if not talent agents of all kinds – when he garishly repeated his client’s demand to “Show me the money!” in Jerry Maguire 20 years ago. Securing premium compensation is a big part of the job for radio’s talent agents, though today there’s much more at play than money. Pulling back the curtain on one of the more mysterious aspects of the industry, Country Aircheck caught up with three leading agents to find out exactly what they do, how their profession has changed in recent years and Paul Anderson who should consider their services. Minding Your Business: Talent agents, simply, are in the business of you. “We manage our clients’ radio careers, find employment opportunities, negotiate their contracts and help build their brands,” The Weiss Agency’s Eric Weiss summarizes.

RESUMEN La música norteña es un fenómeno global vigente, asociado con el norte de México y con el sur de los Estados Unidos. Se considera al transnacionalismo como un enfoque económico-migratorio que permite acercarnos a la música norteña desde las ciencias sociales. La música norteña es una práctica musical que goza de popularidad en naciones latinoamericanas como Chile, Colombia, Brasil y Bolivia. Es un suceso trasnacional y cosmopolita. Fundamentados en autores como Turino, Landolt y Blanco, se explica a la música norteña desde el transnacionalismo y la teoría de la dependencia de Faletto y Cardoso. El texto se construyó a partir de la investigación de archivo y trabajo de campo realizado en las ciudades de Monte- rrey, Guanajuato, Irapuato, Salamanca y Culiacán. El presente artículo contribuye al estudio de las músicas populares latinoamericanas y la música tradicional mexicana.
