The International Music Conference Kicks Off Its Second Annual Music Conference In Atlanta, Georgia

July 17, 2012 - PRLog -- London, England – Atlanta, GA
-- The International Music Conference will kick off its second annual conference on August 8-11, 2012, in Atlanta, GA. The IMC has confirmed its position this summer as the premiere platform for engaging the ever-changing global music market.  The 4-day event brings together key music professionals, radio personalities, DJs, executives, artists, managers, producers, songwriters, booking agents, venues, and promoters from around the globe. The event will offer high-level industry panel discussions, workshops, closed-door meetings and networking opportunities.  Aspiring talent can participate in an array of showcases for artists, producers, and disc jockeys.  To register for the conference visit http://www.theinternationalmusicconference.com.

Thanks to the UK promo launch held earlier this year in London, talk surrounding the conference is intensifying globally. The exclusive, invite-only get together encouraged special guests and attendees to participate and learn more about the conference in Atlanta. Three up-and-coming talents were awarded all-access passes to the main event in Atlanta.  

“Atlanta's a great music mecca that needs to be put on the global map, much in the same way Nashville, LA and NY is. A lot of people from overseas overlook Atlanta and it's a shame because most of the biggest stars out right now are from here,” says Julia Huie -Martin, founder and CEO, in a recent interview.  “I think Atlanta needs that injection of culture to learn about what's going on musically in other markets, having IMC here is exciting because of the potential of people from all over the world coming together, working and making great music.”

This year’s conference promises to be extremely informative and highly entertaining with prizes and opportunities including a trip to London, England, the opportunity to work with a chart-topping act from Europe, and one-on-one meetings with executives and VPs from Sony Records and Atlantic Records respectively, all of which to help launch up-and-comers international careers. “It's a great opportunity to do some real networking, says Huie-Martin. “The IMC prides itself on quality over quantity; we have some of the biggest names in the business that can help you get that one step further in your career. IMC is all about putting you on.”

Attending the IMC can ultimately provide conference goers with invaluable contacts and great connections.  “I will put you in the room with the relevant people. The rest is up to you.”
