Hey friends, Next Tuesday, we’re hosting a veteran of the Lebanese music scene and entrepreneur, Elia Mssawir. He’ll talk about his journey in the music business and the metal scene, sharing insights from years of building, breaking, and shaping the industry. He’ll also present his book, Unreleased Tracks, a personal and unfiltered look at the realities of the music industry, including its struggles, lessons, and behind-the-scenes stories rarely discussed. A book signing will follow at the end of the talk. I’ll then sit down with him for an in-depth interview where I'll ask the hard-hitting questions you’d expect from a professional journalist like myself. We'll be covering his work in Lebanon and the UAE, from founding labels to organizing gigs and growing scenes. If you’re curious about how the music industry really works, this is a rare chance to learn directly from someone who’s lived it. Come one, come all.
