PHL Live Center Stage is Back! Kick Off Party at TLA 8/16 8pm LIVE Broadcast

PHL Live Center Stage is back for its third season. The past two years, hundreds of talented Philadelphia area artist/musicians/bands submitted applications, five finalists in ten genres performed at showcases around the city in front of judges, and winners were announced at an award show at the Trocadero. It has been a success by any definition. Our city is teeming with talent and rich in musical history. The music scene and industry as a whole in Philly has found itself in a resurgence and reemerging from the golden era of 30 or so years ago. The one thing that stands out as an area in need of improvement is artists tend to leave to make it because the industry better supports them in other places.

Listen to podcasts of all of the performances on our 2014 podcast page and 2015 podcast page.

PHL Live is a music initiative created by Councilman-at-large David Oh, Chairman of the Committee on Global Opportunities and the Creative/Innovative Economy. He recognized an opportunity to engage the entire music scene and help promote up-and-coming artists and the creative economy. Artists across multiple genres (Jazz, Country/Folk, Rock, Pop/Dance, Hip Hop, World, R&B, DJ, Gospel, Classical) will get the opportunity to perform at top local venues for a chance to win cash prizes, studio time, performance opportunities, and more. The music festival/talent competition supports local talent and helps them gain exposure but it also brings together many facets of the Philadelphia music community. Recording studios, music venues, media outlets, promotions, service providers, etc. are all working together. By supporting artists and by growing cohesion between the different facets of the music scene, the music industry here in Philadelphia can keep the great talent here in the city.

Artist Registrations will start on Monday, August 15th. There will be a PHL LIVE 2016 Kick-Off Party on Tuesday, August 16th at 8pm at the TLA on South Street. The show will feature performances by The Band of Rivals, Natalie Bermudez, American Dinosaur, Jah People, special guest DJ Casper, and hosted by Sixers In-Arena host Christian Crosby.

If you can't make it to the Kick Off party, don't worry we'll be Broadcasting LIVE. For more information: http://www.iradiophilly.com/phllive
