About Philly Music Fest
Philly Music Fest is a nonprofit organization that produces an annual week-long local artist music festival in October, paying artists and venues and then donating profits to music education for kids. Philly Music Fest was built to support artists and we realized that one of the best ways to support artists is to support the people that support artists - managers, agents, radio, engineers, media and distribution experts.
