Sunset Sessions is a conference for music industry professionals, established in 1998, which includes performances from new musical talent and established acts. The event is held over three days and nights twice a year. Guests include radio programmers, music supervisors from film, television, ads, games and sports, artists, artists’ managers, major and independent record labels, TV bookers, press and booking agents.
Sunset Sessions hold two conferences each year; a February event for the Triple A music format, which started in 1998, and a June event for Rock and Alternative music formats, which started in 2011.
