Today’s guest is Eric Tobin, Executive Vice President of Business Development & A&R at Hopeless Records — a label that’s been pivotal in the careers of All Time Low, Neck Deep, and even Avenged Sevenfold. Eric shares the story of how he moved to California with no plan, landed a job at Hopeless Records without any prior industry experience, and went on to spend over 20 years helping shape some of the biggest bands in the scene. If you’ve ever wondered how record labels really work, how bands get signed, or how to start a career in the music industry, then this episode is for you
