So, you’ve written the songs, you’ve found people to jam with, you’ve developed some demos or a live set - now what?

This session is for young musicians at the start of their creative career looking to launch their band or musical project. We'll cover everything from getting your first gigs, different ways to make or distribute your tracks, marketing your work as well as all the business stuff that goes on behind the music.

We will touch on ways you can keep the ball rolling in lock down too. Join host Tom Hogan @tommehhogan (artist, musician and podcaster) and panellists: Aidan Whitehall @aodha.n (Aodhan), Sophie McComish @bodytypeband blossomrotrecords (Body Type, Blossom Rot Records) and Adam Smith @yoursandowls (Yours & Owls) for the latest edition of the Creative Dialogue series, brought to you by Wollongong Council.
