Music Industry Mentoring Applications Now Open
Gena Rose Bruce and Madeleine O'Gorman - Music Industry Mentoring, 2018
Are you starting your career in the contemporary music industry? Do you need individualised support and guidance from an industry mentor?
Applications are now open for The Push’s Music Industry Mentoring program.
Music Industry Mentoring is a one-on-one vocational mentoring program for young contemporary music industry practitioners and artists in the early stages of their music career.
Having supported the careers of artists such as Courtney Barnett, Alice Ivy, Alexander Biggs and Angie McMahon, the five-month mentoring program matches young people with leading music industry professionals, giving program participants direct access to practical advice, hands-on experience, and pathways into the contemporary music industry.
Mentoring is offered not only to young artists, but also those with an interest in artist management, record labels, events, technical production, marketing, media and publicity.
In 2020, 20 participants will be selected through a competitive application process across a range of streams including music business, performance, technical production, marketing, publicity and events management.
