A few of my fellow SiS bloggers and I have put together a proposal for a panel at next year’s SXSW music conference. What are we proposing to talk about you wonder? Well, as bloggers we are acutely attuned to the way people are discovering music, we often find ourselves getting creative with the ways we find the under heard -and deserving- musicians out there so we can in turn become the conduit for discovery for our readers and each other. Even more often we find ourselves discussing our approaches and perspectives of the state of musical discovery. So, we thought we’d open the discussion to a public audience and share how we find music, how our experiences (personal and professional) influence our perspective and where we feel “musical discovery” is headed. Among us we have social media consultants, promoters, ex-pr and radio presenters – all rabid music lovers – so I assure you it will be a very interesting discussion. But first we need you to vote so our panel is selected for the 2011 SXSX music conference. If you’re so inclined we’d surely appreciate your support simply click below to be taken to our panel page. If you have any questions about our panel or ideas you would hope are voiced if we are selected please don’t hesitate to drop a comment.
