MTSU Celebrates 35 Years of Recording Industry Alumni
The Recording Industry Management department of MTSU will be hosting the first All-Class RIM Alumni Reunion Event during the MTSU Spring weekend Friday, April 13 and Saturday, April 14. Alumni will gather in Murfreesboro, TN for two days to network, celebrate, and share the extraordinary talents and achievements of their peers and colleagues. Nancy Rosenblatt of Trail of Crumbs Music and Virginia Brick of VPB Entertainment have partnered up with the MTSU Alumni Association and RIM faculty to plan the event, which costs only $20.
“Tattoo your soul with rock n roll” and Lucky 13 (Friday the 13th) are this year’s themes. The event includes interactive industry panels, mix critiques, songwriter showcases, Lucky 13 Casino and Bingo games, BBQ Mixer, and a Saturday night finale concert.
Alumni and current students are encouraged to attend the alumni industry panels in the Mass Communications Building Friday, April 13, 12:30 – 3:30 pm. There will be two panels packed with alumni experts, plus a keynote address by Randy Wachtler. On Saturday at 3 Brothers Deli & Brewhouse from 1–3 pm, Rich Karg, Jason Duke and Treva Blomquist will showcase their songwriting talents.
The finale for the RIM Alumni Reunion will conclude with performances by the Charlie Hardin Band (of Murphey), the Pink Floyd tribute band, 2nd and Vine, and the The Judd Hall Band.
