MusicDish Sponsors The Soul Jazz Festival
MusicDish continues aggressive brand awareness drive through partnerships with key music events

MusicDish LLC, a leading music magazine publisher and marketing firm, announced that it has joined The Soul Jazz Festival as a media sponsor. The Soul Jazz Festival is a two-day music event being held on May 6 at the Crown Canyon Park to celebrate the worlds of jazz, soul and other forms of jazz influenced rhythms.

The festival features an illustrious line-up, including MusicDish's own Kobo Town, Ray Brown Jr. (Ella Fitzgerald's son), Johnny Holiday, Ladybug Mecca of Digable Planets, Brian Jackson Original Guerilla Band, MO' Rockin Project and Kim Hoyer. A portion of the proceeds generated from ticket sales will be donated to Active Music and GEN Art.

MusicDish has noticeably expanded its outreach effort in 2007, sponsoring major conferences such as MIDEM, Popkomm and NXNE as well as launching its '10th Anniversary' showcase series in Toronto during Canadian Music Week. "MusicDish has always maintained a presence on the conference circuit," said MusicDIsh founder Eric de Fontenay. "But as we evolve into artist development and management, we've felt it necessary to be much more aggressive on all fronts, from industry showcases to festivals and tours."

MusicDish, LLC has been at the forefront of the digital sector, publishing some of the industry's leading music magazines, including MusicDish and Mi2N. MusicDish Network is the artist development department of MusicDish LLC. Launched in 2001 as a marketing service for independent artists, MusicDish Network has grown into a complete artist development program, leveraging brand development, saturated and relationship marketing, digital distribution and industry outreach to support emerging artists' and bands' careers.
