Soapbox: "Making Musical Cities"

"Events like MPMF, Taste of Cincinnati, and the Fountain Square summer concert series are all good examples that support local musicians. If there were some sort of organization to pull together bands, graphic artists, promoters, and small labels, to promote the city's music as a whole, I think it could be pretty big."

There's a nice piece in Soapbox about the burgeoning music scene in Cincinnati. Shout-outs to @allnightparty, @badveins and Project Mill, yea! Also a plug by my beloved @redkatblonde for locally-grown music in ads campaigns:

"In my experience, very few ad projects that require music have ever incorporated original local music or musicians. I think the main reason lies in the fact that businesses don't know how to necessarily find original local musicians, and therefore miss opportunities to use their music. If a company wants to connect their product or service to Cincinnati, and wants a true hometown feel, the most authentic thing they can do is use original local music in their productions," she says.
