all-inclusive travel destinations and aboard luxurious cruise ships—feature
focused seminars, designed to help entrepreneurs and independent musicians in
all musical genres to navigate the business and new technology of music
entertainment, while affording them the opportunity to network with the
industry’s best and brightest.
Departing
from New York City on the Norwegian Cruise Line’s new megaship, “Breakaway,”

The conference registration is $250, which includes unlimited access to
the Professional Enrichment Sessions (panels), Welcome Reception, Screenings,

In
addition to the professional enrichment seminars, guests can take advantage of
all the activities and entertainment offered aboard the Breakaway, while
enjoying beautiful accommodations, gourmet dining and exotic ports of call.
Music industry veteran, Jacqueline Rhinehart, likens the cruise to those once
done by music label Arista Records. “This cruise is reminiscent of the annual
business cruises hosted by legendary Arista President, Clive Davis,” notes
Rhinehart. “Similarly, the Focus Sessions: MusicBiz at Sea will cover Music
Technology, Publicity, Promotion, Marketing, Distribution and Publishing. And,
like the Arista cruises, the sessions will be held at various sites on the ship
and on the beach. This cruise provides the time to connect, to develop and
exchange ideas, and to benefit from the brilliance of a multi-talented group of
music professionals with interest and experiences spanning every genre of music,
from gospel to hip-hop. This is the environment to talk shop non-stop, if you
like—to glean constructive advice or insight, plus, it all takes place while
enjoying a Caribbean cruise.”
“It
all plays a part in your success,” says ZenBiz Travel owner Laurence Pinckney.
“I've seen too many aspiring independent artists and managers not have access to
quality information. This is a great way to combine their passion and pursuit of
professional growth with the enriching experience of travel. This is valuable
networking of the highest order.”
The Focus
Sessions: MusicBiz at Sea is
open to independent musicians, managers, video/content creators, independent
music labels, and others seeking to acquire a professional edge in the music
industry. Registration for the Focus Sessions: MusicBiz at Sea is
available. Act now while cabins are available. Reserve your midship cabin
