An Interview with A&R Executive and Producer Peter Lubin: Integrity, Honesty and Dealing with Strong Personalities
Peter Lubin
A longtime veteran of the record business, Peter Lubin got his start as a teenager rubbing elbows with rock journalism legends like Richard Meltzer and Lester Bangs as he ran his own music magazine. He soon entered the major label world, and made his name as an A&R executive to be reckoned with when he signed Peter Gabriel and the Moody Blues to US record deals. Over the course of his career as a label executive with Mercury and later with Elektra, he helped launch the careers of artists like John Mellencamp, The Pixies, Phish, They Might Be Giants, and Def Leppard. |
