Always enjoyable with great panels, fantastic bands to see, and plenty of drinks parties, as usual we headed off to Groningen to Noorderslag/Eurosonic arriving early for the EBBAs with live performances from the 10 winners, which included the fantastic Irishman James Vincent McMorrow, Belgian Selah Sue and the Netherlands very own Afrojack. Followed swifly by the European Festival awards, with an excellent live performance from Selah Sue and a lifetime achievement ward for Michael Eavis, it was a busy first night!
Dawson Breed Music attended the International Live Music Conference again this year meeting up with old and new friends and listening and discussing the future of the music business and the constant changes within it. There were some very entertaining panels as usual and interesting debates. Kicking off on Thursday March 11th with a production meeting discussing and sharing production issues such as weather conditions, staging and technical expectations relevant for all those working on live production. Very useful for Bearded Theory Festival the festival we work closely with.
