a live music showcase and a little slice of “Harmony” to this year’s
IMFCON,” said Sean Ahearn, Director of Development & Programming,
Harmony Festival. “Given the nature of the event and the high caliber of
attendees we thought it would be great to produce an event that would
appeal to a wide demographic and provide not only a great networking
environment but a fun away for attendees to be entertained. Live music,
DJ’s, visuals, magicians and a marching band—-what an excellent way to
celebrate the conference being in Las Vegas!”

“I’m excited to have helped put together a live music showcase, with
some outstanding talent, for this year’s IMFCON,” said Mark Lourie, VP
of Development, Skyline Music, LLC. “When I got involved with the
conference last year I was surprised that the music end of things, or a
marketplace with Agents had not yet been part of the event. I think
this great show we’ve put together will inspire all involved to bring
the talent and agent piece solidly on board for years to come.”
