Here Comes Pod With Ged Doherty

Send us Fan MailThis week's guest is true multi-hyphenate. Ged Doherty started his career booking bands in Sheffield, moved into artist management with Paul Young and never looked back. Ultimately he ended up as Chairman of Sony Music UK, where he launched the careers of an amazing array of world famous artists including Dido and Calvin Harris into a Sony firmament which included Beyonce and Bruce Springsteen. As Simon Cowell's boss he worked with the Syco team to help to bring the X Factor to our screens and he is now chair of the BPI, the UK music industry's trade association that runs The Brits. Having conquered the music industry, Ged then partnered with his friend Colin Firth to launch film and TV production company Raindog Films and the three titles released to date - Eye In The Sky, Loving and Official Secrets - have been critical and commercial successes. Ged takes us through his journey to date in a fascinating and thoroughly entertaining episode of the pod.
