New Music on the Block

Presents the 2009 Contest Winners

October 2010

The annual New Music on the Block competition celebrates student creativity in the arts by promoting new musical works composed, performed, recorded and produced by University of Michigan students.

Block M Records will present the 2009 winners in this year’s kick-off concert at 8 p.m. on Friday, October 1 at the Digital Media Commons Video Studio, located on the University of Michigan's north campus in the James and Anne Duderstadt Center. The concert is free and open to the public. The 2009 winners are Daniel Goldblum, Kevin DeKimpe, both undergrads in the School of Music, Theatre & Dance, and Heiko Yang, medical student.

The winners’ songs, recorded in the University's state-of-the-art Audio Studio in the Digital Media Commons, will soon be available for download in the iTunes Music Store.
