Jones is returning as co-chair from last year’s committee. The Committee also includes the following music industry professionals from across the United States: Marcella Araica, Maria Elisa Ayerbe, Jimmy Douglass, Lynne Earls, Anna Frick, Steve Genewick, David "Swagg" Harris, and Ebonie Smith.

Their input will help set the year's agenda and prioritize the issues that are most pressing to the P&E Wing's membership and the industry at large. Priorities will include finalizing a new set of updates to our Recommendations for Delivery of Recorded Music Projects, and a new focus on deliverables for immersive formats, while we continue to work on advocacy for best practices in proper crediting, archiving, preservation, and more."
