GRID Series Geelong 2023
For the very first time, we are bringing our Artist Development Program to Geelong, Victoria.
Check out the incredible group of artists who will be a part of this year’s program, teaming up with an all-star team of mentors, producers and content creators to supercharge their careers.
ARTISTS
Our free program is an end-to end process, cutting through the noise to provide artists access to a huge range of resources, activities and connections that will expand their creative work and remove barriers for them to realise their artistic ambition.
Artists involved in the program receive:
a fully produced, mixed and mastered track, made in collaboration with one of the program’s producers. Across 4 x full day studio sessions, artists will be working intimately with a producer to craft a song and sound that best represents them and their story;
intensive one-on-one mentoring with the music industry’s sharpest minds to help build pathways for their work to connect with audiences;
an artist documentary film, made in collaboration with a collective of the industry’s most in-demand directors to deep dive into their personal story as an artist providing audiences a window into their creative world;
live performance opportunities in Geelong and beyond
Accompanying them along the journey will be their “hype person” - a friend/collaborator/community member nominated by the artist to join them in all the program’s activities as an extra layer of support throughout the program.
Proudly supported by the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria, in partnership with City of Greater Geelong and the VMDO
