The word is out! Registration for the March 4 Own It Music Mastermind series is almost full. Momentum for the kick-off is building steam and the development of the series is gaining the attention of industry professionals and audience alike. The panel lineup for the first session includes Keith Schneider, founder and owner of Colorado Music Buzz Media, and Mike Blecha, founder and owner of Kinnon Entertainment. They will give an overview of the Mastermind series and will address the subject “How To Truly Make It In The Music Business.” Both are heavy hitters in their own right in the Colorado music scene, so plan on a vibrant and interactive evening.
The April 8 session, “Designing your Band – Band Member Roles and Organizational Structure,” will be led by Adrienne Osborn. Adrienne is a founder of two original bands and a jazz quartet. Additionally, she is founder and owner of Performance High vocal training studios. With seven instructors and locations in Boulder and Denver, she serves pop and rock singers. Adrienne will focus on such topics as:
- Consensus-driven vs. democratic vs. autocratic/dictatorial organizational and decision-making band structures
- Communication from a project-management perspective, under the contexts of each of these structures
- Recognizing and working with strengths, while accounting for weaknesses, in each band members’ skillset
The Mastermind sessions are held at Metropolitan State University’s CREATE MSU Denver Showroom at 890 Auraria Parkway, Suite 120, Denver, and are broken down into two segments:
7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. – Videotaped Panel Discussion and Audience Interaction
8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. – Networking Session at IPie in the Tivoli Student Union
If you are unable to participate with the panel discussion, join us for the after-party networking, with an acoustic performance from Brittany Devens, at IPie. And, don’t forget to follow her at https://www.facebook.com/brittanydevensmusic.
