The Belfast Music Exhibition takes you on a unique journey - from Ruby Murray to Snow Patrol, by way of Stiff Little Fingers, Dana and Clodagh Rogers, via The Divine Comedy, Ash and The Undertones. It tells the story of the glorious achievements and diverse musical talents that we have produced over the years.
The Gary Moore exhibits were loaned to Oh Yeah in 2012 by the late guitarist’s estate.

Introduction
Belfast Music Week returns for a third time in 2012, celebrating local talent and industry achievement from 4-11 November. As before, the programme involves rock, alternative, classical, traditional, dance culture and many excellent songwriters. It’s a chance to appreciate Belfast as a thriving musical city and a place that sustains regular nights, festivals with character and a variety of scenes. The city is also known for its hospitality, and increasing numbers of visitors are drawn by its sound, its culture and its style.
Belfast Music Week began in September 2010. This bold idea was embraced by the promoters, the bands and the local entrepreneurs. In 2011, the week was scheduled in the run-up to the MTV EMAs, when the international media were in town and Belfast was able to reveal its unique personality. There were over 170 events in 45 venues, encouraging more than 33,000 people to enjoy our homegrown musical talent.
Belfast Music Week 2012 will see gigs popping up in some of the most unexpected places, from the Victorian Palm House in Botanic Gardens to the Europa Bus Station. Twelve of our most exciting acts will showcase at The Limelight, dance culture will be explored at the Ulster Hall and more than 70 other city venues are represented. It’s a chance to see legends and breaking talent, to appreciate the ongoing success stories and a musical city that continues to make us proud.
Belfast City Council’s Belfast Music Week is co-ordinated by the Oh Yeah Music Centre and supported by the Northern Ireland Tourist Board, Belfast Visitor and Convention Bureau, the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, Invest NI, Tourism Ireland and the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure.

‘What We See’:Two Door CinemaClub documentarypremiereQueen’s Film Theatre,7pm, £3, 028 9097 1097www.queensfilmtheatre.com‘What We See’ is a documentary film by Babysweet following Two Door Cinema Club across numerous European Festivals in 2012. Shot on one camera by one person, the film showcases numerous intimate moments from the road as the band prepare for a world tour that will see them spend another year away from home.
“When we started touring, touring was like this all-
consuming force. It just sort of took every single part of my life and touring became my life. The past few years have sort of been not necessarily a struggle, but a learning curve. So it’s learning to be in touch with the people you leave behind and learning to just deal with the ridiculousness of it all.” Alex Trimble.

Performance Rights Organisations and the artist 10am - 12pmGroup Space, the Ulster HallPerformance Rights Organisations (PROs) are the agencies responsible for making sure their members are compensated every time one of their compositions, or a track they have performed on, is used in a public environment (from television and radio play, to physical recordings and live performances). This can be
a daunting task as licensing/publishing laws are complex, and there’s simply so much music being used that there aren’t enough hours in the day to stay on top of it. This panel will present a step by step guide on how to work with agencies and how to ensure you receive what’s owed to you.

Pick of the DayBelfast Big Screen:Snow Patrol Liveat MTV EMAs, 20116pm, Admission free. Standing only
On Sunday 6 November 2011, the MTV EMAs rolled out from Belfast to a global audience of 1.2 billion. The Odyssey Arena was host to Coldplay, Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars, Queen, Jesse J and Justin Bieber. The Ulster Hall was commandeered by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. But there was another significant moment on a custom built stage in front of the City Hall. This was Snow Patrol’s part in the story, the chance to rouse the night with native
voices. Anthems like ‘Take Back The City’ were perfectly realised. Now one year on come down to the Big Screen at Belfast City Hallto relive the moment. The Belfast “Big Screen” is run in partnership with BBC, the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure, the Department for Social Development and Belfast City Council. No alcohol.

The business has grown to include two further partners and 20 staff working with clients such as Snow Patrol, Kate Nash, Rumer, Emeli Sandé, Ladyhawke, Tulisa, The Foals, The Cribs, My Bloody Valentine, Band of Skulls, Rudimental, Disclosure, Kyla La Grainge and many others.
Jim ChancellorFiction Records was founded in 1978 by Chris Parry. In the early nineties the label was bought by Polydor where it lay effectively dormant for a decade apart from the occasional Cure release. In 1992 the imprint achieved its first #1 record in The Cure’s album Wish, which reached the top of the charts in the United Kingdom. The first release on the “new” Fiction was the Snow Patrol single “Run”, which entered the UK chart at #5. The subsequent Snow Patrol album Final Straw has since gone on to sell over 2 million copies around the world. The current Fiction stable includes Ian Brown, elbow and Kaiser Chiefs.

It’s also a massive global industry, generating substantial economic value - and now going through major changes. This panel will examine the changes in the industry, the importance of a sound business infrastructure and take a look at how local companies can be key players in this sector.
