Just a quick email to let you all know that SMIA are running a Music Takeover Event on Wednesday 30th April in Edinburgh at the Edinburgh Futures Institute partnership with Creative Tech Scotland Gathering. It’s a free one-day event featuring workshops and panels focused on building an effective digital presence around a single or album release led by The Union, EmuBands and Wide Days.
Please feel free to share with artists, bands, managers, labels and industry professionals who might find this useful.
The day features two focused sessions led by The Union and EmuBands, plus a catered lunch and networking opportunity. Attendees can sign up for individual sessions or stay for the whole day. All sessions are in-person, but Zoom watch-only access is also available.
