Music Biz Headlines: David Farrell Remembered, The Weeknd Hints at the End of an Era

Tributes are continuing to pour in for David Farrell, the founder of The Record and FYI. This week's headlines also include a look at an indie label coalition, a campaign against AI and more.

The new year brings new music stories, including new appointments to the Order of Canada, and stories on AI and the plight of indie record labels. We've rounded them up in this week's edition of Music Biz Headlines. Before we move forward, though, we also take a moment to remember David Farrell, who founded this newsletter and made a major impact on the Canadian industry, as the tributes collected here can attest.
