EXCLUSIVE: Electric City Music Conference unveils 2021 schedule at 7 Scranton venues Nov. 19-20
Today, the Electric City Music Conference announced the full lineup and schedule for all three days of its eighth annual event exclusively on NEPA Scene.
The conference begins with the 2021 Steamtown Music Awards at The V-Spot in Scranton on Thursday, Nov. 18. The live music continues on Friday, Nov. 19 and Saturday, Nov. 20 in various venues throughout the Scranton area, including the Backyard Ale House, The Bog, Noir Dark Spirits, Peculiar Kitchen, The Railyard, Stage West, and The V-Spot.
As the largest event of its kind in the area, this celebration of the diverse local music scene is much more than a music festival, bringing hundreds of artists and music industry professionals together every year to meet and network while recognizing and showcasing established and up-and-coming musicians.
“We’re excited to have many new bands, old friends, and a handful of new venues participating in this year’s event. A lot has changed after being locked up inside for a year and a half. We’re ready to get back at it,” ECMC co-founder Joe Caviston said.
Single event tickets and hopper passes are available to purchase now via Eventbrite.
