The Music People, Inc. is back from another successful NAMM show. It was great to see all the familiar faces and to meet new attendees as well. Our products caused a stir and for the second straight year Music, Inc. Magazine recognized The Music People, Inc. in its Best In Show listing.

Among the hot products impressing NAMM attendees was the expanded line of HotWires audio cables, including the new MP-COMBO Perfect Pair Powered Speaker Interconnect Cables. Perfect Pairs carry shielded balanced audio signal and AC power through one bundled cable, making connecting  popular powered speakers easier and neater than ever before. NSL7200 Strap Locks by Hennessey Guitar Parts garnered enthusiastic attention due to their robust yet low profile design and extra-secure locking mechanism. Among percussion retailers, DrumFire’s quality affordable full size DK7500 and junior DKJ5500 drum sets were very popular, along with the brand’s growing line of percussion accessories. As for the company’s flagship brand, On-Stage Stands, the RS7500 Tiltback Tripod Amp Stand stood strong with its combination of high weight capacity and super portability. Together with its optional MSA7500CB Posi-Lok Combo Boom Arm, the RS7500 makes the finest amplifier placement and miking system available.

Continuing its success from 2009, The Music People, Inc. was again included in Music, Inc. Magazine’s Best In Show list. Described as “Exhibitors that make a difference with trend-setting products,” The Music People, Inc. was named a Company to Watch in 2010. George Hines, owner and President of George’s Music out of Berwyn, PA summed it up: “Their packaging is excellent. They keep the products fresh. One example is a strap lock (NSL7200) that they came out with that has a little wrench, but it’s also a bottle opener. It’s solution-oriented, and it’s profitable for the retailer, and it’s fun for the consumer.” Innovation, high-turn value, and real-world performance are what the products from The Music People’s brands are all about, and 2010 will continue to bring such products to market.

The Music People, Inc. is also proud to receive another industry recognition, this time from MMR Magazine. MMR named www.onstagestands.com Website of the Year, citing that “Visitors to Music People's online portal can easily browse a number of categories to gather general (or more detailed) info, review product offerings, and interact with the company directly.” On the heels of this recognition, The Music People, Inc. will soon be launching a redesigned website, providing even easier and more comprehensive access to information and services. Stay tuned for the new onstagestands.com!
