AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Spotify AI crackdown: Spotify will roll out “AI Persona” badges mid-September, with human review and an appeal process, and it says AI-labeled profiles won’t be included in editorial or algorithmic recommendations by default. Tour Reshuffle: Brandi Carlile has moved her UK & European Human Tour leg to spring 2027, with venue swaps and refunds for cancelled Lisbon dates. Indie Spotlight: Phoebe Bridgers announces intimate, phone-free UK album launch gigs ahead of her new record dropping Aug. 14. Comeback Story: Brian Setzer says his Stray Cats return is powered by a Mayo Clinic treatment plan after an autoimmune condition left him unable to play. Live Music News: Rod Stewart cancels and postpones dates after a coronary stent procedure, while Engelbert Humperdinck books a Nov. 13 FireKeepers Casino show. Local Radio: Northampton’s NLive Radio seeks new funding after losing university support, arguing independent local radio matters for community debate.
