"At a time when so many in both the record and radio businesses are living in the past or moping around, Michele Clark has figured out how to bring together radio programmers, artists, managers, music supervisors and record company... The Sunset Sessions are the proverbial light at the end of the tunnel."
- Danny Goldberg / President GoldVE Entertainment
"Sunset Sessions has not only made me a better radio person, but a little bit better person. I appreciate all the work and planning and dedication you and your tiny band of wizards put into this magical gathering."
- Kenny Carrow / KDBB Park Hills, MO
"Here today, everywhere tomorrow. That is the goal of Michele Clark’s Sunset Sessions, a music-business retreat … helped launch the careers of Jason Mraz and such Grammy winners as the Zac Brown Band and the Black Keys brings the musicians to the industry insiders who help bring the music to the rest of us."
- San Diego Union

- Phil Costello / Redlight Management
"Sunset Sessions is the only convention where 95% of the audience has the potential to break your band when they get home from the show."
- Bill Armstrong / Side One Dummy
"I’m having a F***ing ball here. I’ve never seen a group of happier people. I didn’t go to my highschool reunion. This is what I’d assume it’d be like."
