Courtenay: Music and business blend well at conference

The third annual Vancouver Island Music Business Conference (VIMBC) was bigger and better than ever.

With about 200 people in attendance, including over 40 panelists, there were four days of workshops, and live music each night.

Workshops about radio, songwriting, producing, touring, music laws, and everything in between, were filled with aspiring artists, young and old, picking the brains of industry professionals. Song critique sessions also happened periodically throughout the weekend, where songwriters could get advice on their songs.

Susie McGregor, event co-ordinator for VIMBC, said this conference is the only one on the West Coast of B.C., since Music West stopped happening in Vancouver this year.
