Mark Sutherland Max Lousada is buzzing. Warner Music Group’s CEO of Recorded Music is back in his hometown, London, and the sun has come out for what feels like the first time in a spectacularly sodden summer, even by dismal British standards.
Both the rays and Lousada have returned just in time for Glastonbury, the legendary festival that attracts 200,000 fans and features hundreds of artists across a weekend of music, mayhem — and, in most years, mud. “Glastonbury is one of the real pillars of the year,” Lousada enthuses from his London office. “I’m always there for all three days – it’s one of the truly magical music events in the calendar.” This year, however, Lousada has even more reason to be excited about heading down to Worthy Farm.
That’s because WMG provides two of the festival’s Pyramid Stage headliners, Dua Lipa and Coldplay (Sony’s SZA completes the line-up of bill-toppers).
In a first for the festival, Coldplay and Lipa’s sets will be available on a global livestream on BBC.com. Meanwhile, further down the bill, an array of other acts affiliated with WMG feature, including Burna Boy, Janelle Monáe, Anne-Marie, Rachel Chinouriri, Charli XCX and NewDad.
