Indigenous Music Industry Night
Executive Summary
It’s time to move forward and make the “Indigenous Music Industry Night” a reality.
Today, We ask you to take our project to your boards and get their approval to be a part of our event. We will be bringing 7 of California's and Arizona’s finest Indigenous bands while raising money for the Indigenous in Music and Arts new Art Gallery. Our committee has determined that music fits well as the charitable recipient of our fundraiser.
● Provide music and entertainment for the general public
● To actively engage and collaborate with local, public, private, regional, national and international interests to advance business development and opportunities on behalf of our non-profit
● Support and showcase local musicians and their various talents that so often go unnoticed due to lack of familiarity
With the Indigenous in Music and Arts taking the lead with this event, we will begin the process of building new friends and supporters who will join us in raising money for the introduction of the Indigenous and Music and Arts to the community while showcasing our local musicians from Los Angeles area.
We believe that inclusion in this event would be a plus for your organization. You will have
exposure to the estimated 500 attendees. In this proposal, we are asking for your support as a sponsor at a level that fits your business. The Indigenous in Music and Arts Inc is a 501(c)3, and will ensure your sponsorship dollars and deductibility of the contribution.

Meet our Bands
B - Side Players will be headlining our event, a 9-piece Indigenous band part of a new movement in popular music. A band that honors the international cross-pollination that has always made music the universal language. They use any beat that catches their ear, regardless of geography or genre, to create a compelling, horn driven, polyrhythmic groove. They continue exploring the multifaceted grooves of Latin America and the Caribbean, incorporating the sounds of Cuba, Jamaica, Mexico and Brazil with the funk, rock, jazz and hip-hop rhythms of their homeland, dropping bits of Cumbia, Salsa, gritty street Samba, Son Montuno, Jarocho and Boogalo into the mix.
Their incendiary live shows have defined them as local favorites with 10 San Diego Music awards. Meanwhile their albums showcase a band with restless musical intelligence, effortlessly blending genres to fashion their own forward looking, latin flavored soul music. The B-Side Players are a living and breathing cultural art experience for the mind, body and soul.
