Introduction

Bristol Soul is an intense 3 day event for Soul artists, established and aspiring, together with industry partners and supporters. 

Soul is not dead, the music is merely a part of a cultural identity, the music is organic and is evolving independently and underground and will once again soon feature as a force in world music markets. The time is now and this conference will help elevate anybody involved in the industry to their next level, to achieve personal goals and more importantly build the base from which we all work.

 If you achieve, we achieve.  Start building the movement together…….

The Event

 The focus will be to take you to the next level regardless of whether you are a new and inexperienced artist or an established name.

The emphasis will be on education, business, networking, collaboration and performance.

Education

Soul artists have a deep cultural and community identity.  They give back through education.  Skills will be passed on and nurtured through development.  In addition there will be emphasis on cultural and charity projects that the Soul Community are involved in.

Business

The music industry now is not the same as it once was, the world has changed, the marketplace has changed, yet the industry still operates through the old models.  We will explore and educate how to operate new exciting business models in the current environment.

Networking

Networking is a key ingredient within the new business model.  Meet fellow artists and essential industry professions to expand your connections, your ‘brand’ and enhance your career development.

Collaboration

 It is not only about yourselves, if the movement expands, marketplaces expand and all can benefit.  It is essential to communicate and collaborate at all levels, artisticly and in business.

Performance

Of course, artists want to perform and their will be plenty of opportunity from workshops, acoustic sets, album launches and full performance as well as mentoring and collaborative sessions

4 key groups

Attendees

 There will be particular emphasis on education and community and such groups will be encouraged to participate.

 One of the major factors that bind together New Soul Artists is the belief that we are at the dawn of a new age where Soul Music and Culture will regain its place in the world as the dominant force in Black Music.  Together with the sense that working together but independently the movement will again acquire the force and momentum to dominate world music in the years ahead.  New technologies and non traditional business methods will be key to making progress.

 Additionally cultural and community driven strategies will ensure further and enhanced benefits.

 Attendees will be local, national and international
