Artist Management 2010 Conference (AMCON2010)

Join us in New York City October 14-15, 2010 and be part of this unique music conference organized to benefit active and aspiring Artist Managers, self-managed Artists, and Artists seeking management representation; and a place where you can experience the convergence of the music industry’s most potent ideas and most powerful network. This inaugural conference will be a place for Artist Managers and Self-managed Artists to discuss and contemplate current and future music industry trends; formulate or fine-tune winning strategies; network with peers; create partnerships; and conduct serious business. Immerse yourself in strategy-focused sessions by day, and conversation-packed networking parties and artist showcases by night.

The dramatic reduction of recorded music sales and effects of the shifting music industry landscape have left many in the music business - including Artists and their Managers - struggling to find solutions that provide fair and adequate returns on investments. Additionally, new music business models have brought into sharp focus the increasing trend of record labels operating management divisions in-house in order to provide branding and “one-stop-shop”-type services to artists under so-called “multiple-rights” (360) deals.   

The conference is organized to provide you with actionable information you can use immediately to make sense of the best way forward in today’s shifting music landscape. Throughout this exciting and unique music industry event, ideas will fly, career-long partnerships will hatch, and solutions will crystallize. Whether you are an Artist Manager, a self-managed Artist, or a Band / Artist seeking management representation, you can count on both immediate and career-long returns by registering for this one-of-a-kind, must-attend event.
