The MAIN’s next “New Heights” artist development session will be a free event focused on “Using Music Platforms Efficiently,” on Facebook Live on Thursday, July 30 at 7 p.m.

Thursday’s session will feature music artists Nicole Lomaglio, Chris Edgar and Mia Muze. Each will discuss their professional experience with using music platforms and share techniques to successfully organize, promote and distribute content so that it reaches a greater audience.

Nicole Lomaglio is a recording/performing artist and music producer, as well as the lead vocalist in pop music sibling duo “Nicole & Scotty.” Nicole will share her experience with using Spotify and Instagram, two very popular platforms that are used for promotion.

Chris Edgar has written music for film, theater, TV and digital series, and will discuss the use of CD Baby.

Last, Mia Muze is a recording artist, producer, songwriter, singer, fashion model and digital media publisher who will give insight into SoundCloud, Facebook and Bandcamp. These music and audio platforms allow for content to be shared with a global audience and simultaneously provide the artist with in-depth feedback in real time.
