It’s the buzz of a new artist, new music and a new time
It’s debates, questions, and answers
It’s fun, it’s frantic and it’s invigorating
It’s love and it’s dedication
It’s the bright lights of Broadway meets the streets of “The Wire”
It’s music, with all its passion, its grittiness and its glamour
It’s movies, TV, and all the arts rolled into one
It’s rock n’ roll, hiphop, dance, and all that jazz!
It’s “Bawlmer, hon” and we want you to get in on it!
The Baltimore Music Conference brings recognition to music here in Baltimore as well as worldwide and to those that make it happen! Now including film, television, photography, arts and all entertainment mediums, it’s fast becoming an overall media conference.
Add in educational forums, visual artists, vendors, dancers, plus more and you have, undoubtedly, the hottest four day event in the Mid-Atlantic region!
The WHEN? WHERE? WHY? & HOW?
October 14th – 17th with musical showcases hosted each night by the BMC, local venues, record labels and promotional companies at several Baltimore venues. Some are known for large up-scale events, some are more underground. Some host concert series and some are charming and quaint. Dive bar to posh nightclub and art gallery to theater… much like the BMC, all are known to draw a varied and diverse crowd.
‘The Sessions’ will be held Friday at the Hippodrome Theater combining seminars, panel discussions, open forums, roundtable discussions, workshops, the Marketplace and much networking.
BAM (B’more Arts & Music) This outdoor event held Saturday on Baltimore Beach at Rash Field overlooking the Inner Harbor, hosts numerous stages with both emerging and established talent as well as visual artist performances and interactive arenas throughout the day culminating all that Baltimore and the BMC stand for.
Selected for their downtown locations and eclectic amenities, the venues combined will easily accommodate the events 5,000+ guests. A diverse and eclectic audience, among which will include local and regional industry personnel, media, business and civic leaders, various artisans, area celebrities, musicians, DJs and music fans both locally and globally.
