Social trends are ever changing, there’s always something new and creative and fun to share on social, but breaking through the noise to get your voice heard can be a difficult challenge. We’ve recruited social media experts from YouTube, The Recording Academy, Capitol Records and Career Artist Management to give you the ins and outs of the power of social media, best practices, what the latest trends are, how an artist/ songwriter can build their personal brand and examples of some successful campaigns. Plus Atlantic recording artist and songwriter MILCK will join in on the conversation on how her song “Quiet” went viral on Facebook and became the official Women’s March anthem.

Panelists: Freddie Morris (Director of Digital Marketing & Social Media at Career Artist Management), Laura Rodriguez (Social Media Manager at the Recording Academy), Michael Akiko (Music Label Partnerships - YouTube), MILCK, Zoe Gillespie (Director, Brand Partnerships at Capitol Records)
