GigFind – Helping create a Local Scene in Atlanta
I think the one thing that I would stress to anyone who complains that there is no music scene in their area is to get involved. As much as we would like it to be, a good music scene does not just happen. Sometimes the music fans need to get involved to help move things along, either by creating a music society (ie: Blues Society, Folk Music Society, etc) or by creating something unique and different that musicians can use as a resource and a way to expand their fan base and get their music heard.
In Atlanta, one such fan Mitchell Katz, a school teacher and music fan decided to create Atlanta Gigfind to do just that, help expand and support the local music scene. From putting on showcases to creating a social media and web presence, Mitch is doing more than just enjoying the music, he is creating a support system for the local music scene. I interviewed Mitchell about Gigfind and you can hear what he is doing and how it is affecting the local music scene.
