The Lawrence Music Alliance presents the 11th annual MixMaster Music Conference, a music community event that brings local artists and music industry professionals from across the region together to share information, learn from each other, and support our music ecosystem. Empowering musicians through collaborative programs and conversations, MXM2024 offers panels, workshops and networking opportunities accessible to all through this independently-organized conference event.

Kasey Rausch will be on a panel on Saturday, September 7th at the Lawrence Public Library entitled: "Expanding Your Gig Offerings" to talk about some of the different gigs that are available for artists who are looking to get as much of their income as possible from music, including how to straddle the line between original music, covers gigs, restaurant gigs, corporate gigs, weddings, etc.

MXM2024 sees expanded offerings with a series of live showcases around Lawrence venues on Friday Sept 6th + Sat Sept 7th. In partnership with Midwest Music Foundation, the event also offers a health clinic for musicians with free health consultations, custom earplug fitting and health insurance information.
