Aging In - The Strength Found in age
In an industry which is fixated on the next big act how do we carve a path for a long and happy career in music? Join artists, parents, mentors, and radio presenters; Deb Suckling, Mel McGrath, and Ian Powne to find out. They’ve lived the trial of time in the music industry through big highs and big lows. We all feel the pinch of time and the expectations that come with it. But aging doesn’t mean we have to give up on our dreams. If anything it puts our dreams into perspective.
Roads to recording - Inter-sectional knowledge of making records
Your drummer wants to record your band in their shed? That could work, or it could put pressure on your band and make you all resent each other. Every record is different and requires different approaches. Do you know how to decide which path is the best for you or your band? Recording engineers, studio owners, and musicians Demetry Malahoff, Kriza Canzon, and Sachém have an idea. Join them in a discussion of the best and worst recording experiences they’ve had. The philosophy of recording will be front and centre in the discussion. You’ll be sure to leave with a clearer idea on what to record next and how. Bring your band mates and collaborators.
Routes to Learning and Progression - mentorships, internships, and the sea of opinions
We all hit a plateau eventually where progression feels like a battle uphill. Join Rachel Kayrooz, Ella Hartwig, and Deb Suckling to discover how to hijack your way to learning what you didn’t know. They’ll discuss how to find internships here and abroad and why you would want to intern for someone. You’ll learn where to find formal and informal mentors through various organisations. Discover when to tell if someone’s advice is constructive or not, and how to draw on that advice within your community. Be ready to supercharge to your best self!
