AUSTIN, TX – Governor Greg Abbott and the Texas Music Office have announced that the Seventh Annual Texas Sounds & Cities Conference will be held this year in Corpus Christi on November 5 and 6.

“Texas is where live music lives,” said Governor Abbott. “Texas’ vibrant music industry supports local job creation while drawing visitors from around the globe, attracting a talented workforce across industries, and supporting business recruitment and expansion efforts throughout the state. I thank the Texas Music Office for helping communities large and small develop creative partnerships and grow new jobs.”
Co-hosted by the Texas Music Office, the City of Corpus Christi, Visit Corpus Christi, and the Corpus Christi Film & Music Commission, the conference will include panel discussions on Texas music industry development and conversations about statewide collaboration between Music Friendly Texas Certified Communities, as well as best practices that lead to increased music tourism and local job creation.
