The BeginningsÂ
The idea behind Music Media Collective began more than a decade ago, when independent publications and local music media were already struggling to survive. What was once largely a challenge for smaller outlets has since spread across the entire industry, from digital and print to commercial and public radio.
MMC was incorporated in 2025 as a nonprofit dedicated to bringing the industry together to take on that challenge and help build what comes next.
Built by the Industry
MMC is guided by professionals with experience across music, media, live entertainment, technology, education, and nonprofit leadership.
Our Board of Directors, Advisory Board, and Junior Advisory Board bring together seasoned industry leaders and the next generation to help shape our priorities, programming, and what we build next.
Built on Collaboration
Collaboration has been part of MMC from the start. We work alongside other organizations, industry partners, and allies to create opportunities and team up to take on challenges because we’re stronger together.
What’s Next
We’re not trying to recreate what music media used to be.
We’re exploring new, sustainable business and revenue models, better ways to reach audiences, and opportunities for education, workforce development, and job creation.
One of our biggest initiatives in development is the Music Media Center, a model designed to bring many of these pieces together under one roof while creating opportunities for the industry, fans, and local economies
