2011 Bayfest Music Industry Education and Scholarship Program

The Music Industry Education Program will host speakers, workshops and jam sessions with respected
music educators and professional musicians. Past programs incorporated sessions on copyright law,
contract negotiations, stage management, college scholarship opportunities and other music industry
issues. The all-star panel has included Matt Roberts (lead guitarist with 3 Doors Down), Dennis "Finger
Roll" Nelson (national recording artist), Top of the Orange band members, Robert W. Smith (Director of
Product Development for C. L. Barnhouse and Walking Frog Records; Music Industry professor at Troy
University), and Blair Shotts (a staff professor at the Musicians Institute in Hollywood). The talent of
this panel mesmerized the audience with information and performances.
