“We are excited to present this year’s Music Cafe artists to the Sundance Film Festival with eight days of incredible music,” said event producer and ASCAP senior exec Loretta Muñoz. “It is the perfect place for filmmakers to connect with composers, songwriters and artists, fostering new relationships between the music and film communities.”
The Sundance ASCAP Music Café will be located at Rich Haines Gallery (751 Main Street, Park City, UT) and is open to festival credential holders from January 20th to 27th. Performances begin daily at 2:00 p.m. and will showcase both emerging and established artists, allowing independent filmmakers to experience and interact with potential collaborations. To that end, this year ASCAP will host an invitation-only composer-filmmaker Cocktail Party on Jan. 24.
