It Starts With The Music...

It Starts With The Music... is an opportunity for young people (aged 16-25) from Stockport to connect with upcoming and established music industry execs who also have roots in Stockport or Greater Manchester themselves.

The event will focus around a series of short, informal round table chats granting young people access to learn about different areas of the music industry and what roles exist within them, from the world of live music, to music management, to working within a record label or a music streaming platform.

Industry guests include:

Aaron Haigh (touring musician and backline technician)

Amelia Fearon (music journalist and writer)

Elli Brazzill (Music Editor, Napster)

KinKai (recording artist)

If you are keen to learn more about the steps you too may be able to take to turn your love of music into a career from experienced music industry professionals with a local background, then this event is for you.

*Please note: attendees must book a free ticket in order to be able to attend this event!*
