Larry Farber talked to Theoden Janes from the The Charlotte Observer about the lessons learned as a “yes” man and visionary for decades in the entertainment business. “Don’t do things just because you think somebody’s gonna do something for you. If you do it for the right reason — to make someone else feel good — it always comes back in one way or another.” 

Larry Farber, Co-founder of MIddle C Jazz, clearly loves the music industry and his hometown of Charlotte.  Theoden says the conversation and stories he shared underscores three truths:

1. Thanks to decades spent booking A-list legends and rubbing shoulders with powerful people in Charlotte through his live-music ventures, Farber has an astonishing cache of contacts.
2. He doesn’t just know these folks, but he has real influence — thanks to a track record of treating artists, customers and friends alike as if they’re VIPs. And
3. Hooking people up, so to speak, warms the heart of the Charlotte native who friends refer to as “Mr. Music Man.”
