In 1993, Rishon Blumberg graduated from the Wharton School of Business with a degree in Entrepreneurial Management and entered the entertainment industry. His career began in concert promotion, first at Nederlander Concerts, then at Delsener/Slater Enterprises (now Live Nation). After leaving the concert world, Rishon co-founded Brick Wall
Management, an entertainment management and consulting firm representing musicians, producers, songwriters, and filmmakers, with partner Michael Solomon.
At Brick Wall, Rishon has also helped produce several music films and TV specials for the firm's clients, including John Mayer's Any Given Thursday (certified gold), Operatic Heat, and Remember Me for PBS. Brick Wall client William Fitzsimmons' documentary, Finding Home, produced in early 2010, garnered two awards at the LA International Film Festival, including Best Documentary Short.
With an ever-growing passion for technology, Rishon and Michael co-founded Setlistics in 2009. Setlistics develops iPhone apps centered around music, including the first-ever app for Bruce Springsteen fans. The company is currently developing additional apps for multiple platforms, and has also filed a patent for a consumer electronics product. In 2012, identifying a need for the representation of technologists, Rishon and Michael teamed up with Altay Guvench to form 10x Management, a talent agency for technology professionals.
Rishon also helps to administer The Kristen Ann Carr Fund for cancer research, and serves on the advisory board of Musicians On Call. Rishon also spent two long but fruitful years coaching his oldest son's little league team, arguably his greatest achievement to date.
