E6: TuneCore, music publishing, and pop punk nostalgia featuring Alyssa Byrne

Welcome to another episode of You Had to Be There, the podcast where we deep dive into the crowds of concerts, festivals, the music industry, and more. I’m your host, Julia Gomberg.

This week, we're thrilled to have not just one of the industry's best, but also a dear friend and former colleague – Alyssa Byrne! Alyssa is a pro's pro regarding music publishing and rights management. She's the Senior Publisher Relations Manager at TuneCore, a powerhouse in the independent music distribution scene.

We talk about all things publishing but also deep dive into her love for metal, pop punk, and emo music, so be sure to also check out her You Had to Be There curated playlist for the podcast, which you can find on our instagram, @uhadtobetherepod.
