To help facilitate those initial career steps, Bello Winter Music 2015 is excited to invite young musicians to participate in its very first Youth Mentorship Program.
Each successful YMP applicant will be paired up with a mentor – an established artist featured on the festival line up.
The winning emerging artists will receive a rehearsal session with their mentor, a 20-minute performance at the festival (with their mentor backstage), the opportunity to watch their mentor perform from backstage and weekend passes to the festival.
We are excited to announce that Bellingen’s favourite son JACK CARTY, along with local Bellingen artists HONEY & KNIVES & THE MID NORTH will take part as mentors alongside GABRIEL & CECILIA (THE VOICE 2014).
2015 Bello Winter Music Youth Mentorships will be awarded in the following categories:
VOCAL – Mentored by HONEY & KNIVES
SINGER SONGWRITER – Mentored by JACK CARTY
BAND – Mentored by THE MID NORTH
15 Years & UNDER – mentored by GABRIEL & CECILIA
The 2015 Bello Winter Music Youth Mentorship will be judged by a selected Music and Entertainment industry panel.
Applications will be shortlisted by the judges, with final winners being selected by the mentors of each category.
Bello Winter Music looks forward to uncovering and nurturing the region’s new young talent, with applications opening in April 2015.
The skills and encouragement gained through such a program, both on and off the stage, will be invaluable for all involved, and the connections between mentors and winners will last well beyond the festival.
So if you’re 19 or under and are keen on checking out a career in music, learn from those who do it for a living!
