Indie Music Alliance is a flagship digital initiative developed by World Music Development. Designed to support independent musicians, music industry professionals, and support businesses, the platform functions as a professional networking and resource hub, intentionally built outside of traditional social media models to eliminate distraction and amplify opportunity.

The project was developed by World Music Development’s President and CEO, Saam Golgoon, and was formally launched as part of his participation in the 2024 Colorado Creative Industries Change Leader program. Accepted into the program with Indie Music Alliance as the central project, the platform received a $500 seed grant from CCI and is positioned as a transformative tool for creatives statewide and beyond.

Indie Music Alliance is designed to address the systemic challenges faced by independent artists, particularly those in rural, underrepresented, or economically disadvantaged communities who often lack access to the professional tools, networks, and opportunities needed to grow sustainable careers. The current platform includes a live searchable database of artists, venues, and other related businesses that enables users to find and connect by role, genre, and geographic region.

Version 2.0 of the project, launching in late 2025, will introduce AI-assisted tools for touring logistics, booking negotiations, and artist communications, further expanding its impact and accessibility. By integrating innovation with equity, Indie Music Alliance supports World Music Development’s broader mission to foster peace and community enrichment through music, cultural engagement, and artist empowerment.
