YOU NEVER FORGET YOUR FIRST BILLION

Seen just before scouring Brooklyn for cronuts are (back, l-r) RCA Prexy/COO Tom Corson, Sony International’s Adam Granite, Sony Music Sweden MD Mark Dennis, Spotify VP of Content Steve Savoca, RCA EVP John Fleckenstein, Ultra Prexy/Founder and Sony Music President of Electronic Music Patrick Moxey, Sony Sweden A&R head Helen McLaughlin, Sony International VP Dusko Justic, RCA GM/EVP Promo Joe Riccitelli and RCA Chairman/CEO Peter Edge; and (front, l-r) Kygo and manager Myles Shear.
