DFEST: Oklahoma's Music Conference & Festival.
DFEST: Oklahoma's Music Conference & Festival.

Diversafest (Dfest), Oklahoma's Music Conference and Festival, was an annual live event that showcased independent and emerging artists and hosted educational music industry panels and a tradeshow. Dfest took place the last weekend in July in the historic Blue Dome District of Tulsa, Oklahoma. The music conference and festival had the purpose of promoting and empowering emerging artists from around the United States. By 2008, Dfest had grown to include more than 140 bands performing on over 10 stages in downtown Tulsa and featuring music industry panels, clinics and a tradeshow during the days at the host conference hotel. Attendance over the two-day event in 2009, was nearly 70,000. However, the 2010 festival was cancelled.[1]

Festival

The first Dfest took place in 2002. 12 local bands played for a crowd of roughly 150 people. Growing steadily each year, there were 22 showcasing acts in 2003, 65 in 2004, 96 in 2005, and 108 artists of 20 different genres playing for 16,000 fans in 2006. In 2007, the location was moved from 18th and Boston to the Blue Dome District in downtown Tulsa. This location was more conducive to the multi-venue format Dfest had evolved into. The Blue Dome District also featured a large, centrally located parking lot where The Flaming Lips, Leon Russell and Amos Lee played for more than 15,000 enthusiastic fans in 2007. All told, Dfest 2007 would feature over 130 acts on 13 stages with approximately 40,000 people attending over two days. In 2008, the festival grew even larger, featuring festival stages in the PAC parking lot where The Disco Biscuits, Moe, Ghostland Observatory, Clutch, and Helmet played to huge crowds in excess of 5,000 and the Santa Fe lot where Edison Glass, Phantom Planet, Paramore, The All-American Rejects, Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, Zappa Plays Zappa, and The Roots played to music fans that exceeded 15,000. Overall, the 2008 event featured over 140 acts and attendance over the two-day event in excess of 60,000 festival-goers. 2009 is expected to be the best Dfest yet.

Notable acts featured at Dfest have included: Adam Hood, The All-American Rejects, Amos Lee, The Apples in Stereo, Bassnectar, The Black Crowes, Black Stone Cherry, Blue October, Cake, Carney, Citizen Cope, The Cool Kids, Clutch, Damone, Daphne Loves Derby, Delta Spirit, Dengue Fever, The Disco Biscuits, Dub Trio, Edison Glass, Evangelicals, Fair To Midland, The Flaming Lips, The Format, Gil Mantera's Party Dream, Gogol Bordello, Ghostland Observatory, Helmet, The Honorary Title, Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, The Knux, Leon Russell, Limbeck, Lovedrug, Mates of State, Metro Station, MC Chris, moe., Other Lives, Ozomatli, Paramore, Phantom Planet, Ra Ra Riot, Rooney, The Roots, Motive for Movement, Sherwood, Shiny Toy Guns, Steel Train, Starlight Mints, The Veils and Zappa plays Zappa.

Conference

Dfest 2004, was the first year to feature music industry panels. All showcasing artists were invited to attend these panels featuring music industry professionals speaking candidly about getting ahead in the business. In 2005, panels were extended to two days, and covered a variety of topics including record deals, touring, marketing and recording. 2005 also featured guitar and bass clinics, as well as demo listening sessions.

The 2006, Dfest Music Conference grew in size and scale. It moved to the Downtown Doubletree Hotel which allowed for more room than previous locations. The keynote speaker in 2006 was Scott Booker, manager of The Flaming Lips. It featured a tradeshow with 21 exhibitors, a bass clinic by Billy Sheehan, a guitar clinic by Ravi, demo listening sessions, and one-on-one artist mentoring. The conference was very well attended, with over 800 registrants.

The conference continued to grow in 2007 and 2008. In 2007, the keynote speaker was Ken Abdo, of the Grammy Foundation, and there was a much-hyped "couch interview" with Wayne Coyne, frontman of The Flaming Lips. A drum clinic featuring Will Calhoun of Living Color was a hit and the tradeshow was home to 25 exhibitors.

In 2008, the keynote speaker was Martin Atkins, best known for his work in post-punk and industrial groups including Public Image Ltd., Ministry, Pigface and Killing Joke. He also wrote the indie band Bible, "Tour Smart and Break the Band." The conference host hotel also moved to the Downtown Crowne Plaza Hotel which added convenience being literally less than a block from the festival site in the Blue Dome District.

2011

While Dfest was put on "hiatus" for the year, organizers have not announced any plans for a return in 2011.

On May 4, 2011, Cain's Ballroom announced the inaugural Brady District Block Party which will be a one-day festival featuring The Twenties, The Flaming Lips, Primus, Mutemath, Civil Twilight, Awolnation, Solid Gold, Particle, That 1 Guy, and The Pretty Black Chains. The festival takes place on August 6, 2011 and is assumed to replace DFest.

2010

Dfest 2010 was originally scheduled for July 30–31, 2010, but in late May the organizers announced that the festival was on "hiatus" for the year. They cited economic problems, rising costs, and a decline in sponsorships as reasons for the cancellation.[1]

2009

Dfest 2009 took place on July 24–25, 2009 in the Blue Dome District, Tulsa OK. Approximately 164 bands made an appearance.

The First round of artists was announced at a press conference in Downtown Tulsa on April 21, 2009.
