Traditional Music Forum

The annual gathering to chew over the trad music topics of the day. This year:
Gender Equality in trad music: after the exploratory meeting at Celtic Connections, what next?
Trad music audiences: outside of the festivals could we doing better?
Crowdfunding: is it the answer to fundraising? What else is on offer?
Selling albums: could a distribution co-op be the way forward?
Speakers include Jen Hill, Duncan Macinnes, Dougal Perman, Pauline Hinchion, Iona Fyfe, Mike Vass, Martin Hadden, Martin Meteyard and Findlay Napier 
There will be a break in the middle for the TMF AGM, and music to round off the day.
