New York, New York, so nice, they named it twice. LAMC, so nice, we are doing it twice. With Latin music and entertainment growing so much, no nos queda otra que hacerlo dos veces! We thank you for being part of the LAMC - either watching it, registering for the conference, listening to it or just somehow randomly getting this LAMC guide book - gracias. Another year of great music, informative panels and workshops and amazing music by some of your future favorite artists. We have seen so many artists and executives grow year to year at the LAMC and it is always encouraging to see. Watch the three days of the conference - hopefully learn a thing or two (I do every year) and feel free to share with other like minded people who love this music industry as much as we all do (or should). Engage in the chats, meet new people, listen to the compilations (ok, playlists) and basically just be involved. We built the LAMC for you. Use it. See you in person July 11-15 - but first, watch the LAMC virtual version this lovely April week.
