Latin Alternative Music Conf. Acts Named

The 10th Annual Latin Alternative Music Conference (LAMC) has announced the lineups for this summer's Central Park SummerStage and Celebrate Brooklyn showcases. Those lineups range from up and coming artists like Brazilian samba-funk man Curumin and Argentine electro-cumbia collective Zizek to Latin rock icons Los Fabulosos Cadillacs and Aterciopelados. Bowery Ballroom, Mercury Lounge and S.O.B. showcases will be announced in the coming weeks.

With a warm welcome from the Big Apple, the biggest event in the world for cutting-edge Latin music will return to the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City from July 7th - 11th.  This five-day conference provides networking opportunities with the genre's leading artists, label executives, journalists, marketers, managers, retailers and programmers. Given the economic times, the LAMC and Jack Daniel's have joined together to make registration only $99 for all attendees this year, proving to be a bargain opportunity.

"Pioneering and inventive events like the annual Latin Alternative Music Conference are reasons why New York City remains the cultural capital of the world," said Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg. "Through the work of the Latin Media and Entertainment Commission, New York has been able to attract and retain major Latin events that are part of the reason that people want to keep coming to New York City. We are proud to showcase the talent and rich diversity of Nueva York, and look forward to another successful LAMC."

 With LAMC events taking place in Mexico, Argentina and Canada in recent years, the conference will once again return to foreign lands this fall. More details will be announced shortly.
