In Pursuit of Your Music Biz Degree

Looking to learn how to gain exposure and an enthusiastic audience for your music? Go back to school and see what's happening on college campuses.

mtvU and Billboard magazine are looking for a few good college students to speak their mind on the state of music today. If I were an aspiring singer-songwriter attending college, I would consider using this as a vehicle to gain some invaluable exposure.

The NACA National Convention is rapidly approaching (Feburary 18-22 in Boston). Featuring more than 80 showcasing artists, performers and programs, as well as over 100 educational sessions, NACA is considered the largest campus activities marketplace in the country.

On the touring tip, the 3rd Virgin College Mega Tour is in the planning stages and scheduled to make 18-20 stops in April and May. A new feature this year will have Virgin enlisting local performers to play on the Emerging Artist stage.

Sonicbids is accepting EPKs through 3/31/06 for the second annual CMJ Rock Hall Fest, taking place June 14-18, 2006 in Cleveland, OH. As many as 100 artists are expected to perform for tens of thousands of music fans.
