SchMusic is a forum for songwriters, musicians, music management and all levels of industry to get a chance to know one another in an approachable and relaxed environment.

SchMusic is the chance to meet-and-greet with Industry Professionals who could help advance an artist’s career. By meeting someone in a relaxed setting, you can make a connection that a phone call or email can’t get you. At the SchMusic Parties, you can put a face to the email address, phone number, and perhaps make a lasting impression on a booking agent, label or potential manager.

Please pre-register to get on the list. Email info@musicbc.org or call 604.873.1914 or toll free within BC 1.888.866.8570.
