Music, Blogging & Social Media

This month we'll be looking at music and social media. How the industry is changing as a result of blogging and social media, examples of artists using blogs and anything music industry related.

Guest speakers include:

Andrew Dubber (http://andrewdubber.com) - 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 (http://bandcamp.com/).

James Howard (http://www.linkedin.com/in/jamesjosephhoward) - heads up music for Google (https://plus.google.com/104764468902833105716/about)+ in the UK.

Terry Tyldesley (http://www.kitmonsters.com) - founder of Kitmonsters (http://kitmonsters.com/blog), a blog that celebrates musicians and the kit they use to get their sound.

We will also be joined by singer / songwriter Toufique Ali (https://www.facebook.com/toufiquealimusic) who will be playing a short set for our enjoyment.

After all you can't have an event about music without some music too.
