Mamie Coleman, VP Music, FOX
“goNORTH acts as a gateway into the UK market and is a great way for us to access new international artists”.

John Robb
“goNORTH is great on many levels, great line up of bands that goes beyond the usual dustbin indie fare, a beautiful city to hang out in and a surprisingly diverse cross section of people attending making it one of the best of the music conference circuit”.

Sat Bisla, President & Founder, A&R Worldwide
“goNORTH has proven to be Scotland’s premier music showcase and conference event. It continually evolves and brings a great balance of creativity and commercial outcomes. I always find the event productive and a valuable experience”.

Keith Harris, Director for Performer Affairs, PPL
“goNORTH is a much more open seminar. A lot of conferences are expensive, which makes them exclusive. goNORTH makes it easy for the people who really need the information to get it”.
