WHAT IS THE CHRISTIAN MUSICIAN SUMMIT CONFERENCE ALL ABOUT?
Christian Musician Summit conferences are designed for worship leaders, musicians, technicians, pastors, songwriters, and independent artists to improve skill and inspire talent for God's glory. These conferences feature the best musicians in the industry as workshop clinicians and performers. The CMS conferences also feature exhibits with audio/video and music companies who offer products and services for the Christian church market. These events provide a time for musicians and technicians of all levels to come and learn, network and fellowship.
IS THE CHRISTIAN MUSICIAN SUMMIT AFFILIATED WITH ANY PARTICULAR DENOMINATION, OR RECORD LABEL?
No, we are not affiliated with any particular Christian denomination or record label or publisher. The owners of the company, Bruce Adolph & Matt Kees, are Christians, and each are involved in the ministry of their home churches.
WHAT DOES THE REGISTRATION FEE NOT COVER?
It does not cover the cost of food, lodging or travel.
I'VE ALREADY REGISTERED. DO I GET A PACKET OR ANYTHING IN THE MAIL?
We mail out Name Badges about 2-3 weeks prior to the event. This name badge is your ticket, and will enable you to enter the facility without having to wait in a registration line. Online versions of the program with workshop schedules and presenter bios are available for viewing prior to the event.
The One-Day Intensives will not send out anything badges will be available for pick-up at the event.
CAN I REGISTER FOR JUST ONE DAY OF THE CMS CONFERENCE?
Quite possibly... however single day registrations are not available until much closer to the event, as the conference is likely to sell out early with 2 day attendees.
IF I REGISTER FOR BOTH DAYS, BUT CAN ONLY ATTEND ONE, CAN I GIVE MY BADGE TO SOMEONE ELSE TO USE ON THE SECOND DAY?
Yes! Just make sure you share the same name badge.
CAN CHILDREN ATTEND THE CONFERENCE?
The summit is geared toward adults and young adults. We ask that individuals under the age of 12 not attend.
Young children and infants can at times be distracting to other attendees as well as their parents. Thank you for understanding our policy on this and being considerate of other registrants.
I'VE READ THAT I CAN SUBMIT MY MUSIC TO YOU, IS THAT TRUE?
The only music that we accept is from folks who are registered for the Songwriter Boot Camp intensive. The Songwriter Boot Camp is the first step to developing relationships and networking in the industry... this is key to furthering your career in the music business - relationships. To register for a Songwriter Boot Camp, click here.
We are not a label nor publisher, so there is nothing we can do with your music if you were to send it to us :)
SHOULD I BRING MY GUITAR TO THE CONFERENCE?
You may bring a guitar to the conference, however, it is not necessary. There will be a handful of workshops where having a guitar with you may come in handy. If you decide to bring your guitar, neither the CMS nor the venue is responsible for any lost, stolen or damaged property. You will need to carry it with you, or leave it in your vehicle.
CAN I RECORD THE WORKSHOPS OR CONCERTS?
Audio or video recording the workshops, sessions and/or concerts is prohibited, due to licensing agreements.
WHAT ABOUT REFUNDS OR CANCELLATIONS?
If you are unable to attend, you can give your registration to another individual.
