What does an entry level music A&R do?

An entry level Music A&R (Artists and Repertoire) professional helps scout new talent, assist with the development of artists, and support the signing process for record labels. Their responsibilities often include researching emerging musicians, attending live shows, reviewing demo submissions, and providing administrative support to senior A&R staff. They play a key role in discovering new artists and helping shape the sound and image of those signed to the label.
