New York, NY (Top40 Charts) W.O.A International - 18th Feb 2016 - It's been a fantastic journey for the WOA Records
India Tour and International
Music Festival, which just completed its 8th annual music festival and tour in association with Vh1 India. Through the years the festival and tour has featured breakthrough independent artists from almost every continent and is the only festival to give every genre of music an equal platform on huge concert stages and high profile venues across Goa and India. This year was no different with 5 major concerts including 2 festivals as part of the tour schedule across Goa, India.
The headliners
Oliver Sean (Goa/UK) and Emyna (USA) and the other fantastic International and Local performers at the festival this year had fans from around the world screaming and dancing to their music at every gig. The media coverage was unprecedented to say the least with the artists, headliners and other performers of the tour being covered by major newspapers for every gig of the 8th Annual WOA International
Music Festival. This year also saw fans getting backstage access to meet the artists after gigs, including special meets and greets at the official resort and hospitality partner locations, where the artists were accommodated like stars this year - Azzure Resort (by Spree Hotels) and Pinto
Rosario Square. Some of the artists were even seen doing impromptu jams with local musicians at the resorts during the off days of the tour.
Vh1 India, partners of the WOA International
Music Festival for the past 8 years, gave the tour the biggest support till date this year with television spots throughout the tour, news tickers, gig diary listings, Vh1 social media support to literally millions of fans and even had special rotation of WOA Records artist music videos for the duration of the tour. "These guys (Vh1) really are the biggest supporters of local and Independent music," says
Oliver Sean, Headliner at the Festival and founder of the WOA Entertainment Group, "and ever year that we organise this festival, we see more and more mainstream media and venues joining us to support this one of a kind tour and festival dedicated to hard working, true to their art, Indie Musicians"
As the tour winds down and the artists make their way to their countries thousands of miles away from Goa, the fantastic WOA International team is already getting set to organise the 9th Annual WOA International
