She is creator of NARIP’s Music Supervisor Sessions, which feature music supervisors from the film, TV, games and ad agency sectors and have yielded over 30 music placements (in the #1 box office film Chronicle, True Blood, Dexter, Don’t Trust The B—- in Apt. #23, Bad Girls Club, Jane By Design, on ESPN as NASCAR Racing theme music for an entire season, in the star-studded Movie 43, in the Sony Pictures Classics At Any Price starring Zac Efron and Dennis Quaid, in several documentaries including the title track of the film Finding Our Voice, and in other projects). NARIP’s sessions have sold out repeatedly in Los Angeles, New York, Berlin and London. One of the nation’s leading authorities on careers in the music and record industries, Ms. Taylor has connected countless people to jobs and opportunities through her work in the US and abroad, cultivated collaborations for over two decades, helped launch hundreds of projects and several companies. If you’ve read Malcolm Gladwell’s book “The Tipping Point” then you may recognize her as a “super-connector.” Says Hollywood Today Publisher & Editor Jeffrey Jolson-Colburn, “Tess Taylor is one of the great resources of the music business. She’s a walking job fair. She has amazing insights into where the business is going and combines that savvy with a Rolodex the size of an SUV.” Music Connection magazine named Ms. Taylor in its list of “50 Innovators, Iconoclasts, Groundbreakers & Guiding Lights of 2008” (Dec 2008). Dubbed “International Music Ambassador” by music supervisor P.J. Bloom (Glee, Nip/Tuck, The Shield, CSI: Miami), Ms. Taylor works with groups such as the European Music Export Office, Danish Songwriters Guild, French Music Export Office, Boomtown (Sweden) and Berlin Music Commission to connect their members to opportunities in LA and throughout the U.S. She has consulted leading businesses such as InsideSessions (a joint venture between the Universal Music Group and Penguin Putnam, Inc.), The Walt Disney Company, BMG Entertainment (formerly Sony BMG), Concord Records and MySpace.com in its start-up phase. Recent keynotes include Popkomm (Berlin), the Drucker Career Conference (Los Angeles), the Trigger Creative Conference (Sweden), the University of Vienna’s Institute für Popularmusik in Austria, NAMM 2011 (Los Angeles), the California Music Industry Summit, Berlin Music Week and others. Deeply annoyed by people who think music should be free, Ms. Taylor is a vigorous defender of intellectual property rights and debated Electronic Frontier Foundation co-founder John Perry Barlow on “free music” at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth (2006) and was invited for a rematch at Ohio University (2008). She won both times. She has lectured at institutions across the nation and around the world ranging from the Harvard Business School to local colleges and universities. From 1988 to 1993 Ms. Taylor was employed at MCA Records, Inc., last serving as Associate Director of Marketing. A classically trained pianist, she studied music at the University of Vienna, and is a Phi Beta Kappa, Magna Cum Laude graduate of the University of Redlands’ Johnston College where she received her BA degree in music, German and literature. She loves traveling the world, nibbling dark chocolates and drinks lots of tea. She also loves fine fountain pens, anything written or recorded by Glenn Gould or Pete Townshend, gripping crime novels and hiking with her handsome and purposeful English cocker spaniel (NARIP’s Executive Dog) Haribo. Ms. Taylor encourages people to adopt pets and not buy them. @TessTaylor ![]() Romain Vivien, MD France, Believe Recordings – Believe Digital (co-moderator) Romain Vivien is managing director of Believe Digital in France, the leading digital distributor and artist service provider in Europe.
