CREATE MSU’s OWN IT Music Mastermind #5: An Artists View of Branding and Marketing—July 8, 2014
by Angela Kerr
Once again we experienced standing room only at the Mastermind. With Sarah Slaton, manager/artist development at Vinefield Agency, Anthony Casale, venue manager of AEG Live (Gothic, Ogden, Bluebird), and Tim Wenger, senior editor from Colorado Music Buzz Magazine – the crowd experienced a new level of professionalism. With power packed conversation and handouts for future reference, the power trio did not disappoint.
The Who’s Who in attendance included: Digistar Entertainment and Star Mentors, Colorado Case Company, MonUmental Moments, Five Rings Financial, Music Munch Management, Literary Records, Aureus Audio and One Way Music Services.
Representatives from local performing bands included: Driftin’ Suns, Ando Gro, ATP, Two Girls with Guitars, WryWood, WoolEye, The Dead End Drivers, Chris LaFata, Jason Vigil, As Nations Rage and Katey Laurel.
On July 8, 2014, we will feature Dave Curtis from Dave Does Designs and Vices I Admire speaking on the topic of “An Artist’s View of Branding and Marketing.” Expect Dave to share personal experience in designing communication and art for musicians and give pointers on how you can “Do it yourself” as well as how to seek professionals who can help you brand and market your band. The unplugged set guest artist is The Dead End Drivers.
The August 12, 2014 session of the series will focus on applying everything we have learned thus far by determining the interest amongst our Mastermind Networkers in CREATING an OWN IT 2014 New Year’s Eve Bash. We would talk about creating an event that would feature the performers who have been dedicated to the series. This session will not only determine interested parties but set the stage to take action identifying roles and responsibilities.
The Mastermind sessions are held at Metropolitan State University of Denver’s CREATE MSU Denver Showroom at 890 Auraria Parkway, Suite 120, Denver, and is broken into two segments.
7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. – Videotaped Panel Discussion and Audience Interaction; Registration Required (CREATEmsudenver.com)
If you are unable to participate in the panel discussion, join us for the after-party networking at IPie.
8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. – Networking Session at IPie in the Tivoli Student Union; Open to the Public
The panel discussion is nearly full, so make sure to register for the Mastermind series at CREATEmsudenver.com.
