NOKIA MUSIC CONNECTS INDIA: ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR CANADIAN ARTISTS

From Australia to India, Canadian Music Week is continuously on the foreground, scouting new partnerships and opportunities, and opening doors to new markets for emerging Canadian bands and artists.  Our partner this time around is Nokia Music Connects India – a gathering of music business professionals focused on issues facing the music industry in India. Last year’s inaugural Nokia Music Connects featured over 500 attendees and drew in speakers from all areas of the Indian music industry.  This year, taking place September 1-2, 2010 in Mumbai, the conference extends to two days and promises to deliver another stellar event.

Through our partnership with the event, two export-ready Canadian acts will have the chance to perform at Nokia Music Connects India.  If you are interested in this opportunity, here are some of the criteria you will need to qualify:

  • Must have released a nationally distributed recording in the last 24 months
  • Upcoming confirmed bookings and/or demonstrated tour commitment
  • A strong professional history and/or industry recognition
  • An established team (ie. management, publicist, etc.)
  • Radio and/or Video play

If you are export-ready, please submit your name, contact info, website/Myspace links, etc. to bessie@cmw.net by June 30th.  All submissions will be reviewed by a committee and final selections will be made by the organizers of Nokia Music Connects India along with input from Canadian Music Week.
