DISCOVERING AND NURTURING YOUNG MUSICAL TALENT IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA

A groundbreaking initiative has been launched with the primary objective of discovering and nurturing aspiring artists under the age of 18, residing in the Gascoyne, Mid-West, and Pilbara regions of Western Australia. This project invites young musicians from these areas to submit their original music for a chance to perform a live paid set at the

2024 Beats in the Bay Festival in the stunning foreshore in Shark Bay.

Selected artists will receive comprehensive support to aid their musical journey. This includes professional filming and sound production of their performance, ensuring it is suitable for commercial use. Additionally, travel expenses for the artist and their parent or guardian will be covered, and a mentorship day with an industry professional will be provided. This mentorship will offer invaluable guidance on developing a successful career in the music industry.

Supported by Festivals Australia, the project endeavours to leave a lasting impact by nurturing a new generation of musicians and contributing to the rich cultural fabric of the regions.
