Event Coverage
LeAnn Rimes shines, Carney combusts at Sundance ASCAP Music Café
On Monday, January 25, music superstar LeAnn Rimes performed a powerful set at the Sundance ASCAP Music Café. Joined by one of her longtime co-writers Darrell Brown on keyboards and guitarist Peter Hutlinger on guitar, Rimes enraptured the audience with her crystal clear voice and emotional songs. The next day L.A. rock band Carney, lead by brothers Reeves and Zane Carney, blazed onstage with their theatrical classic rock attack. The diversity of those two acts reflected the eclectic nature that has always been a trademark of the Music Café. Adding to the mix on days four and five were k.s. Rhoads, Danielia Cotton, The Rescues and Vedera, who all delivered incredible performances in front of packed rooms.
ASCAP Filmmaker & Composer Breakfast brings together some of the best of the fest
On Tuesday, January 26, ASCAP hosted a special, invite-only Filmmaker & Composer Breakfast exclusively for Sundance Film Festival filmmakers and their film composers - as well as other ASCAP composers who were in Park City for the Festival. The ASCAP Filmmaker & Composer Breakfast provides a wonderful opportunity for filmmakers and music creators to connect in a warm and friendly setting. Breakfast attendees had a chance to win Digidesign's all new Mbox from Avid Technology, Inc. (which includes Pro Tools software), and the lucky winner was Nicholas Greer, composer of the music for the festival documentary 8: The Mormon Proposition.
