in Los Angeles, CA
ABOUT NARIP A&R PITCH SESSIONS
NARIP’s A&R Pitch Sessions are small, intimate pitch sessions (limited to 16 participants) with some of the best A&R executives in the business today. At each NARIP A&R Pitch Session, one A&R executive will listen and provide live feedback to music presented to him for analysis and consideration for label acts who accept outside material. Participants will receive an advance brief of the A&R executive’s current music needs to enable them to prepare the most focused pitch.
Isaac recently judged talent at our LAMN Jam Music Contest, and he was so enthusiastic and excellent we asked him back. He has since spoken at a NARIP A&R Pitch Session with members of the Danish Songwriters Guild. At this session he connected attendees with multiple meetings with his associates including music producers, set up co-writing sessions for one artist, and is contemplating a business relationship with yet another!

Isaac also served as A&R for TRP Records and worked on new albums by Everlast, Elliott Yamin, and Michael Johns. Following his time at Three Ring Isaac started managing, developing, and launching artists careers with Michael Goldberg.
