Women in Music at Digital Music NY!
We had a tremendously successful Digital Music NY July event. We want to thank first and foremost our exceptional co-hosts for this event: Women In Music (sign up at www.womeninmusic.org) and board members board members Evangelia Livanos, Stephanie Chall and Hadley Poole. They helped organize an amazing panel of the "Leading Ladies in Music," and also helped us draw a record crowd with their promotional efforts.
The panel included a discussion and Q&A with four senior women in the music industry, each one a pioneer in her own way. It wasn't about making a big deal that these women are so powerful, but rather that they happen to have powerful jobs and ARE women. On top of giving practical advice that the audience could put to good use for their own careers during the panel, some of the panelists also stayed after to talk one-on-one with members of the audience who had further questions. Samantha Cox, Exec. Director of Writer Publisher Relations at BMI, even took CDs from every single artist who approached her during the event!
