After a one-year absence in 2008, the MidPoint Music Festival has brought back the daytime “music conference,” with useful panels and discussions about a range of topics of interest to all types of independent musicians.
All panels are Saturday afternoon, so pace yourself Friday night — the first two are at the Garfield Suites Hotel, MPMF.09 headquarters, and the final one takes place at the Contemporary Arts Center. Topics include information on the local music scene and “Albums in the 21st Century,” with panelists C. Spencer Yeh and Paul Coors.
All MPMF performers are encouraged to attend and mingle with your fellow musicians. The panels are also open to three-day wristband holders and non-musicians alike.
Be sure to check mpmf.com for the latest updates — everything, as they say, is subject to change and more panelists could be added.
