Join us this upcoming Monday, March 31, to hear from special guest, Nikki Boon! Nikki Boon is a Michigan-born, multi-faceted music industry professional with experience in artist development, touring, and artist management. Notably, she is an Artist Manager at Neon Coast, a progressive music and entertainment company headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee. Amongst Nikki’s artist roster is multi-award winning and genre-crossing Kane Brown who has amassed 17 billion streams, 12 Billboard No. 1’s on the Billboard Country Airplay Charts, 55+ RIAA certifications, as well as Diamond-status for his single, “Heaven”.  In 2021, Boon also signed alt-pop band Nightly after watching from afar as a fan. The band has been featured on stages such as Lollapalooza, Hangout Fest, Super Bowl Music Fest, among others – and are one of only seven U.S. artists on WeVerse, the global fandom platform based in South Korea. We will also be holding our 2025-26 Executive Board elections after we talk with Nikki! Be sure to stick around for the whole meeting to vote for your next MIC E-Board.
