Music, Blogging, Social Media and Dave Grohl
It’s just less than one week to go until the next London Bloggers Meetup: Music, Blogging & Social Media.
We’ll be discussing how blogging and social media have transformed the music industry, what aspiring musicians can do to build an audience for their work, examples of artists using blogs and anything music industry and blogging related.
Our guest speakers include:
Andrew Dubber – Professor of Music Industry Innovation at Birmingham City University, author of ‘Music in the Digital Age’ and ‘Understanding the Music Industries’, and advisor to Bandcamp.
– heads up music for + in the UK.
Terry Tyldesley – founder of Kitmonsters, a blog that celebratesmusicians and the kit they use to get their sound.
We will also be joined by singer / songwriter who will be playing a short set for our enjoyment.
If that’s not enough to get you excited, we’ll also be joined by Nirvana and FooFighters legend Dave Grohl… ok that’s not strictly true. Actually that’s complete rubbish, Dave won’t be there at all.
But if you are a fan I strongly suggest you watch his keynote speech from SxSW this year (see below). What an excellent speech and a great intro to how the music industry has changed in recent years. Dave, the London Bloggers Meetup community salutes you.
