The Vision


It’s a very exciting time in Huntsville, and growing our music ecosystem to its full potential is a goal the City takes seriously. Ensuring our success as a music city requires community engagement at every level to support our music scene and bring more attention to the positive things happening here.

The Huntsville Music Office is tasked with creating a more dynamic and diverse music scene that strengthens our economy and enhances the quality of life for residents and guests. We are committed to supporting the career development of music industry professionals and aim to set a positive example to the broader community through promoting fair and competitive pay for work performed within the music sector, based on the value of the services provided. Here’s a look at our goals and initiatives, which we look forward to strengthening and amending.

The office’s resources are an unparalleled source of information to assist companies and their decision-makers with expansion and relocation.
