Neon Love Life Rocks Indy Social Media Breakfast

Girls Rock. That was the theme of the 5th Indy Social Media Breakfast, held this morning at the The Indianapolis Children's Museum. More than 80 local social media marketers and communicators gathered for the event, which took place at the new "Rock Stars Cars & Guitars" exhibition.

Amidst life-size "Kiss" mannequins, vintage rocker muscle cars and memorabilia once owned by the likes of David Lee Roth, Elton John and Michael Jackson,  the all-girl rock band Neon Love Life talked about how the band is using social media and word-of-mouth marketing tactics to launch a non-profit organization designed to empower young girls through rock music.

Members of the band, Sharon Rickson, Tasha Blackman, Lindsay Manfredi, and Ashley Plummer treated the audience to an acoustic performance of some of their original songs, and talked about how Girls Rock Indy was created, and thanked the Indianapolis community for its support in donating instruments and helping to drive membership around its Facebook page and attendance at the Girls Rock Camp.

Panera Bread and the Children's Museum were co-sponsors of the networking event. The Rock Stars Cars & Guitars exhibit runs through September 12th.
