What does a thriving live music scene in Tweed look like?
That’s the focus of a free music industry forum planned for next month as part of the Live and Local Tweed project.
The Tweed Music Industry Forum will be held on Friday 19 August at the Murwillumbah Auditorium from 10 am to 3:15 pm.
The forum will be facilitated by the Live Music Office and include presentations on the Live and Local program, an overview of the regulatory framework for live music and cultural activity in NSW, and a series of facilitated discussions on the Tweed music scene – as well as live music performances.
The forum is free and open to everyone but will be most relevant for:
-
Musicians
-
Venue owners
-
Artist Managers and booking agents
-
Festival and Event organisers
-
Music educators
-
Businesses and community members interested in Tweed’s live music scene.
The session will be interactive and participants should come willing to share their ideas and listen to others about what makes a thriving live music scene.
The event is free to attend, but registration is required via Eventbrite Tweed music forum
Please note – RSVP early to avoid missing out. There may be a cap on the number of RSVPs Council can accept due to changing COVID-19 restrictions. Registrations will be accepted on a first come, first served basis.
Council has partnered with the Live Music Office, APRA AMCOS, MusicNSW and Griffith University to deliver Live and Local Tweed.
The program included creating a community working group formed to help coordinate a micro music festival held in Murwillumbah over 3 Saturdays in May as well as 2 online workshops - Building a Brand and Pitching to the Press and The Business of Music - to assist musicians and industry people better understand the nature of the business.
The workshops can be viewed on Council’s YouTube library.
