Western Iowa tourism increasing due to music production
It seems that the western Iowa tourism region lines up almost exactly with the region where most of the music in Iowa is recorded. This area of the state is full of local talent and there are many in home recording studios here. The tourism board did a survey of the artists in the area and put out a pamphlet showing where tourists could go to see performances live along with where to go to learn more about the recording industry in Iowa. It seems many of the artists in the area were not aware of other artists there and with this new information many have gotten together to collaborate on different projects. Many have even started putting out duet CDs recorded in the basement studio. These CDs are starting to show up for sale in local establishments. As the sales for these increase so does the demand for the artists to perform an the local venues. This is spurring quite an increase in the appreciation of not only music, but all of the performing arts in the area. This place is getting to be the hot spot of the state to go to hear all kinds of music from country western to hip hop.
