In the latest episode of Boardroom Uncovered, City AM’s UK Editor Jon Robinson sits down with Phil Halliday, Managing Director of HMV, to unpack the storied retailer’s unlikely resurgence.

Once a cautionary tale of the high street’s decline, HMV has quietly engineered a turnaround, with Halliday at the helm steering Britain’s most famous music shop into the streaming age.

Far from a nostalgic throwback, Halliday argues HMV’s strength lies in curation and community, noting how vinyl sales have surged alongside the appetite for band merchandise and limited editions.
