Marsha Vlasic, Vice Chair, Music Division, at Independent Artist Group, received a couple of big awards from the Canadian Live Music Industry Awards in Toronto earlier this month. The longtime agent and female trailblazer took home honors for International Agent of the Year and Most Powerful Women in Live Music Award. Three months earlier, Pollstar inducted her into the Women of Live Hall of Fame. Vlasic was an anomaly in the business when she began in the '70s, one of the first female music agents. She has represented Canadian Neil Young for four decades. In just the last year, she's booked tours for everyone from Elvis Costello & Daryl Hall and Jane's Addiction to PJ Harvey and Cage The Elephant, among others.
