Their next networking event is Thursday, April 25th from 5:30-7:30 at The Defoor Centre for “Buy Local…Music That Is” an educational panel about alternate avenues for custom music placement.
Georgia’s music history is rich and diverse. Internationally acclaimed artists from all genres call Georgia home: Gospel, Country, Classical, Hip Hop, Rock, Christian, R&B, New Age and Indie Rock. In an ever evolving technological world, musical avenues are changing.
This panel discussion will discuss ways in which advertising agencies, production companies, game developers, new media companies can resource Georgia based artists, studios, musicians etc…
