Calling all Knoxville music makers. We want to gather all those involved in our city's music scene for one evening of organizing, socializing and brainstorming on how we can improve our already awesome music community. We will be hanging out at Pour Taproom. Come enjoy good beers and great company. Part of your drink sales will go to fund programs for musicians through Knox Music Coalition! Please invite all the music friends you have, or those looking to get involved in the scene and help us unify Knoxville's music community. Let's strengthen the value of talent in our city! This is a great way to network, meet musicians, find friends, and learn more about the Knoxville Music Scene.
FREE TO ATTEND, find more info at knoxmusiccoalition.org

Knox Music Coalition’s mission is to strengthen and connect Knoxville’s music scene through educational programs, career development resources, and music advocacy with local community.
Knox Music Coalition was created with the hopes of giving Knoxville's music community a voice and providing its musicians with the resources to grow our music scene. KMC first began as a musician's meet-up. Knoxville artists, promoters, venue owners, radio hosts and other music influencers gathered to discuss the local music scene and brainstorm actionable solutions to common problems. As we continue to expand on the thoughts, ideas and discussions from our monthly meetings, we are always looking for ways to add resources and opportunities to Knoxville’s music scene. Our goal is to strengthen and connect Knoxville’s music scene through educational programs, career development resources and music advocacy within the local community. https://www.facebook.com/events/3585478238409551/
