IMMERSE 2014

The Gospel Music Association (GMA) has announced the dates for IMMERSE 2014. The annual music conference will be held June 23 through June 25 in Nashville, Tennessee at LifeWay Christian Resources.

For years, the indie event has brought together experienced teachers that will walk artists through the intimidating process of recording, writing a great harmony, developing stage presence and literally hundreds of other topics that can overwhelm the creative mind of a young artist. They’ve taken the most important information, mixed it with networking opportunities among attendees and industry execs, added an uncomparable mentoring and competition element called reVIEWyou and thrown in some really great music to create three days of learning and fun you won't find anywhere else.

Registration to IMMERSE (June 23-25, 2014) includes: All general sessions, evening concerts, and breakout sessions. reVIEWyou, meals, and lodging are separate.

Those planning on attending can save money by registering early. Dates and fees are:

•  May 30 - Dec 2 - $99
• Dec 3 - Mar 28 - $149
• Mar 29 - onsite - $199

A $20 non-refundable deposit is due at time of registration. $50 is due Friday, December 6 (or immediately if registering after December 6th). The balance is due on Friday, May 30, 2014. The reVIEWyou fees are $60 for 1 Entry and $100 for 2 Entries (in the same or different categories). The categories are: Songwriter, Male or Female Artist/Writer, Male or Female Vocalist. There is a maximum of 2 entries PER category and you must be age 13 or over to compete. No reVIEWyou entries will be accepted after midnight on May 23, 2014. Optional meal plan are $60 and include lunch on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.
