2011
2011 has been quite a wonderful year for us here at Tinderbox! We produced our 2nd annual Tinderbox Music Festival, our 1st Tinderbox Songwriting Workshop for young women in NYC, our 1st official CMJ Showcase, and co-presented two other music industry events including Piano Driven Women and Winter Song which benefitted empowering arts programs for young women, while at the same time showcasing female songwriters. We especially want to give a special thanks to organizations which were absolutely instrumental in helping us achieve our goals in 2011 including ASCAP, Converse, Girls Write Now, Inherent Artists, Jingle Punks, Presswolf PR, ReverbNation, Oven Fresh Music, Publicide, and Time Out NY!
