"The question is how do we do that in a way that supports our existing industry and artists, respects our cultural traditions and ensures the wealth generated is equitably distributed so it isn’t just C-suite executives who end up reaping the benefits" –John Stanton, Gambit Weekly editor
"If we really thought through this and really invested in more of the invisible part of the industry, we have an opportunity to really, really grow things here and make a better New Orleans, a better Louisiana," -–Reid Wick, Recording Academy & LMP co-founder
"What’s missing is the infrastructure that allows all of it to thrive without requiring people to leave home. For generations, New Orleans has given the world songs, sounds and movements that changed music forever" -–Nate Cameron, Jr., MaCCNO & LMP co-founder
