Jamz Supernova is a multi-hyphenate force in the UK’s music space, holding multiple labels which are as numerous as they are formidable. She is a label head, radio host, DJ, podcaster, and overall tastemaker with a broadcasting career in the industry spanning more than a decade.
EMC had the pleasure of hosting Jamz at their conference back in 2019 where she sat down with George Maple for an in-conversation about their journeys as DIY artists and offered advice to emerging artists, creatives and professionals on similar paths.
Hosted by Talia Jimenez, Episode 3 is an exploration of artistic resilience and adaptation. Through a ‘then and now’ conversation with Jamz Supernova where we dive into the impact of the pandemic on her work, exploring the pre-and post-COVID landscape, and her perspectives on what it means to be a DIY artist or creator in today’s world and beyond. We also discuss the importance of community, mental health, and adapting to the changing landscape of the music industry.
