Charlie Feldman recently retired as BMI’s Vice President of Creative in New York
Charlie joined BMI in 1988 and has supported and worked with countless songwriters during his career, including the Neville Brothers, James Brown, the Holland Brothers, Carole King, Chip Taylor, Greg Allman, Rihanna and Nile Rodgers, to name just a few. His many accomplishments include helping to establish BMI’s presence at SXSW and Lollapalooza, and he was also BMI’s liaison with many of the industry’s most important organizations, serving as a trustee and past President of the New York Chapter of The Recording Academy and a board member of the Songwriters Hall of Fame.
Charlie began his career in the music industry as a songwriter with Muscle Shoals Music in the early 70’s. He later served as the Vice President of EMI-Nashville before joining BMI. His professional memberships also include the Country Music Association (CMA), the Academy of Country Music, and the Nashville Songwriter’s Association (NSAI). And I need to add after having spent over 2 hours with him recording for this show, one of the nicest people you will ever meet.
