Our approach
Professional producers and industry experts support people to write, record, and release original music. Skilled facilitators and peer artists create safe spaces to explore musicians' wellbeing.
How mentoring works →The model
Our music industry mentoring combines creativity, professional guidance and wellbeing support. It gives people space to develop an artist identity, build confidence, professional skills, and resilience, and unlock their potential. No previous experience is needed.
Start with an idea, influence, lyric or beat.
Develop original work in one-to-one studio sessions.
Learn production, recording, performance and how music is released.
Work towards a track, mix, performance or personal creative goal.
Why music industry practice?
Developing ideas into finished mixes—and receiving feedback from mentors, peers and wider audiences—can bring a powerful sense of achievement, belonging and creative energy.
Music and mental health support sit together throughout the process, helping people strengthen their wellbeing and move forward with realistic goals.
The mentors
Producers, artists, managers and other music-industry specialists.
Mental-health awareness, trauma-informed practice, safeguarding and professional boundaries.
Practical guidance shaped around the person’s music, ability and goals.
What makes it different
By the end of a programme, participants often feel less defined by their mental health challenges, more confident in their abilities and more aware of their creative potential.
