On Friday, Andrew Dubber came to talk to a group of musicians/promoters at Embrace Arts about his New Music Strategies theories and here's is a link to his ebook:
www.newmusicstrategies.com/ebook And he can be found at www.facebook.com/andrewdubber

At the session, Natalie mentioned the new Leicester Music Collective: http://leicestermusiccollective.org/ and their events and listings service.

We also talked about the merits of:
www.soundcloud.com - where you can share music and get feedback
www.kickstarter.com - where you can encourage people to invest in your creative projects
www.bandcamp.com - which helps artists sell their music and merchandising to fans

Also Nick Dunne of Horus Music is leading a free workshop for us as follows:
