Raised on the sights and sounds of MTV, Wende Crowley knew from a young age she wanted to put music in film and TV shows – even though she wasn’t totally sure it was a job. Today, she has that job as a senior vice president in Sony’s music publishing division where she and her team oversee more than 4 million music copyrights, including the entire Lennon-McCartney catalogue. Over three bottles of California Syrah, she discusses how she broke into Hollywood’s notoriously tight-knit music community, how she helps music supervisors from film and TV find that perfect song for a key scene, and how streaming and the DIY aspect of music production is affecting the future of the industry. We also learn that Ben will be forever indebted to her for giving him her seat at Sony’s table during his favorite band’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony. Which band? Listen and find out!
