THE ONE DAYER: INDEPENDENT MUSIC, MONEY & TECH
WEDNESDAY 1 JULY 2015 , CECIL SHARP HOUSE, CAMDEN, 10AM-7PM
Our second One Dayer conference in London gathered together some of the brightest brains to prepare and inspire us about the future of live independent music. We were joined by musicians, producers, funders, venues, promoters and techies to talk about how technology can get us there; how the audience is changing; and where the opportunities lie for funding and revenues.
The One Dayer was packed with provocative thinking, debates, networking and practical advice designed for anyone who cares about or is involved in making, promoting and sharing non-mainstream live music.
There were chances to participate in a live debate with senior politicians to lobby them about the future of live music; hear from insightful expert speakers, join practical show and tell sessions and take part in panel discussions about the opportunities for live music, audience development, technology and finance.
