Sun's out! A sandy Rob O'Connor dragged himself away from the beach to host Irish Beats, spinning plenty of sunshine tunes to match the weather. Rob's guest this week was the music publisher Johnny Lappin who recently wrote a book about his musical adventures, including signing Hozier and sorting out the deal that made him an international star. Johnny's book is a great read for anyone who wants to learn a bit more about how the music business works.
.@curlybert dragged himself away from the beach to spin two hours of homegrown tunes on #IrishBeats. He wasn’t organised enough to sort out dinner so an apple will have to do. #suffering Music coming up from @TheAcademic @EveBelleSongs and @mundyirl pic.twitter.com/ekEryQr3ux
