Michael Huppe Email & Phone Number

I love music. And as the president and chief executive officer of SoundExchange, it’s my privilege to champion music creators every day using technology, data, and advocacy. Whether I’m leading efforts to launch new lines of business or advocating on the steps of Capitol Hill for creator-first legislation, every aspect of my work is undertaken on behalf of SoundExchange’s larger mission: to ensure that creators are compensated fairly, efficiently, and accurately for their work. To date, SoundExchange has distributed more than $9 billion in digital performance royalties to over half a million music creators.In addition, I am an adjunct professor at Georgetown Law School, a frequent contributor, published author, lecturer, and active community member. My opinions have been published in Variety, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, Music Business Worldwide, Billboard, and The Hill, among other outlets.
