How rock bands teach companies about effective branding
The Beatles and The Rolling Stones landed on our shores in 1964, changing popular music and culture forever. Sixty years later, one of those bands is still filling stadiums and making music that’s remarkably similar to their first release. The other played their “final” concert in 1969 – but turned the music world upside down with their landmark albums and sonic exploration. What can these two bands teach the business world of today? Author Rich Cohen is back in town to shed some light on the topic. Appetizers and cocktails will be served.
