Viva Sounds 2024

How to survive, and thrive; in the Indie Landscape 2024

This year’s Viva Sounds conference offers a street-level dive into the world of independent
music, featuring panels, interviews, and workshops, with bags full of experiences and insights.
Explore the world of sync licensing, the challenges of the US live market, and the pivotal role of
indie entrepreneurs and labels from a ground-up perspective. Gain a behind-the-scenes look at
Partisan Records’ release journey for IDLES’ album TANGK, and hear from the legendary Simon
Williams in our keynote interview about his journey from NME to Fierce Panda and his book
Pandamonium! How to Not Run a Record Label.

Formed as a platform Westside is built on 55 partners all active in the world of indie. We firmly believe it’s better to work together to break new ground vs working alone and be miserable. Get with it.
