LIVERPOOL Sound City is gearing up for another successful city centre festival and conference next summer with a packed programme of events.
It aims to show off the city’s finest acts to the worldwide music industry as well as bringing some of the best global talent to Merseyside.
As part of the 2011 business conference Liverpool Sound City has announced it will be working with historic publication Mersey Beat to celebrate its 50th anniversary. Founding Editor Bill Harry set up the newspaper, which helped launch The Beatles to the world, in the early 60s.
Mr Harry will be taking part in a debate on the state of the music media today.
Festival Director Dave Pichilingi said: “Our plan is to continue developing Liverpool Sound City as a world-class music event while we build upon Liverpool’s stature as a place to come and do exciting business.”
