The three-day festival, the largest of its kind in that city, included over 250 bands on 15 stages and proved successful for BMI in discovering new musical talent, including bands like Scenes From A Movie and Suburban Tragedy, among others. BMI showcased several artists on two stages, featuring some of the most captivating performances of the event. Industry watchers made their way between the two venues, listening to performances from Dish, Kalen Nash, Kiteline, the Ruse, Monochromatic, Elevation, the Hero Factor, Manchester Orchestra, and headliners Third Eye Blind.
