Michelle Jones: Violinist, Producer & the Lawsuit That Changed Copyright Law | The Stereo Image

This week on The Stereo Image, Mike Jones sits down with violinist, violist, composer, and music producer Michelle Jones, founder of Violectric, the world's first LED string ensemble, for one of the most wide-ranging conversations we've had on the show. Michelle has played with Page & Plant, Josh Groban, Sarah Brightman, and Wayne Newton. She orchestrated Maluma's "Botero" (recorded under NDA on Halloween and now over 4 million streams). She's a Grammy-nominated artist, a 26-year Disney seasonal solo musician, a World Entertainment Award-winning live event producer, and the woman whose copyright lawsuit literally changed U.S. law for content creators. Oh, and she records three miles from the Magic Kingdom, with mandatory breaks for the fireworks.
