Utopia Music's Drew Hill reacts to ERA 2024 Yearbook results

06 March 2024 - Press release

Drew Hill, Deputy CEO at Utopia Music: “Whilst supermarkets and other large retailers have gradually shifted focus from physical music, independent record stores have picked up the ball and ran with it, adapting to meet the market gap and capitalising on growing fan demand. Record stores provide a unique space for music lovers to listen, collect and engage with their favourite artists in a way that taps into superfandom, and co-exists alongside digital streaming. It remains crucial that we continue to provide unbeatable service to thriving record retailers to maximise potential and ensure their bright future.”
