Changes for the Summer!



Hello All--

Sorry it's been a while since my last post. In the midst of finals at Northwestern U and moving back to the east coast for the summer it has been a pretty hectic few weeks. I finished up sound design ona couple of movies, had a few awesome end of the year gigs with my new band The Cables, and wrapped things up in Evanston for the year.


As of this past Thursday, I started my summer internship at Nettwerk Music Group, a company that takes on the role of Record Label, Artist Management, TV and Film Distribution, Publishing and Marketing. Nettwerk has worked with such artists as Sarah McLachlan, Shiny Toy Guns, Guster, William Fitzsimmons, Nneka, The Submarines, and Ladytron just to name a few. The company started in Vancouver but has offices in New York, London, Germany, LA, and Boston to widen its reach and involvement.

Interning at Nettwerk is an incredibly exciting opportunity to further my knowledge of the music industry and widen my skill set in various areas. As part of my internship, I am actually required to keep a blog, and thus will probably be reporting on here less during the next few months. Although I may update this page with new information regarding The Cables and some acoustic gigs in NY that I am planning, you can follow me for the summer at Kara's Summer Phones.



Peace.Love.Music
