words and shook hands with people of all ages and nationalities, musical genres and
positions in the music business and parted with a smile while saying 'See you!'
... (Events like KMC) are one of the reasons why I've continued studying music." - hiro
"Thanks very much. Without the invitation, I wouldn't have made it to Japan this year.

"The audience was great at Atlantiqs. When I said 'peace!' The audience responded 'peace!'
Then somebody shouted 'Ichiban!' (Japanese for you're no.1). Thank you everybody!
Thank you for buying our new CDs and asking for autographs! I was glad to meet a lot of
cool musicians like Trace and Adelle and other people. They were really cool and it was a good opportunity ! Thank you KMC!"- Riot Dance Party
"I'd like to say thank you to KMC for organizing such an event and bringing together a set
of very interesting people. I observed nothing but a sheer desire to share each other's
experience, and a very refreshing "no bs" attitude everywhere, quite the opposite of an
industry convention, I must say. I enjoyed this tremendously. I know your theme for the
conference was to 'bridge' cultures and I would love the spirit of KMC to extend over here
in Tokyo." - J.J. Aucoutrier
"Thanks again for the great opportunity at KMC... I will definitely return to play in Japan.

truly rewarding experience through and through!" - Norine Braun

in KMC every year!" - Clear

To the KMC committee for the event and selecting us to promote the Gospel in Osaka.
To Shinichiro Yamamoto and Shin's Community Acts, Hosea Baker, Elliot Jackson and
Warren Alston..." - Jita
"Thank you for organizing KMC and for having The Hipstones perform." - The Hipstones
"I booked an entire tour around this conference, and although I didn't bring in any money for
the KMC performance or merch that night, my other shows were profitable. There was some
good networking with music industry professionals in Japan, and KMC was just what I needed
to initiate my first Japan Tour. I was even on national TV for a KMC promo interview." -Allison Adams Tucker
"I had a good experience at KMC. Thank you!" - volunteer staff
