We at Music Times spend a fair amount of time at huge music showcases such as Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo and Governors Ball, but Music Times recognizes that it's just as important to keep an eye on the shape of the music industry, especially in an era where streaming, digital downloads and social media have changed how the business sustains itself, and how it will continue to do so in the future. We're all in this together! Therefore Music Times is pleased to offer TWO badges to this year's New Music Seminar, one of the most seminal events for exploring the future of music—from both an artistic and a business perspective—to our readers.
In their words:
"This year, the music industry has faced many trials and encountered an immense amount of change that requires an educated discussion about what the future holds. We all have to work together in order to adapt, build and ultimately, transform the business into the powerhouse that it has been. Come to New Music Seminar to join the discussion about transforming the music business to benefit the artists and the industry as a whole. From its origins in 1980, New Music Seminar has been characterized as a catalyst for change in music and business. This year will be no different. Multiple movements, international open forums, mentor sessions, networking breaks and much more! Artists benefit through learning about the three criteria surrounding success: creation, exposure and monetization."
If you want to take a friend to check out the future firsthand, just tweet @TheMusicTimes with what artist or panelist you're most excited to see at the 2015 New Music Seminar and the hashtag #NewMusicTimes. Good luck!
