SONGMAKERS – MENTORING THE NEXT GENERATION OF AUSTRALIAN HIT-MAKERS.

SongMakers is an intensive, real world program about being creative. Australia’s best songwriters and producers mentor students to create and record new music, right there in the classroom. For two days, students are immersed in a hothouse collaborative environment and given unparalleled insight into the forces that drive today’s contemporary music industry and the creative processes required to cut through.

Hands-on, challenging and rewarding, the program is designed to fast track students’ understanding of the opportunities in today’s contemporary music world and set them up for success.
