Pirate Studios launches new talent initiative The Pirate Prodigies
By Chris Cooke | Published on Tuesday 20 February 2018
Pirate Studios – the network of rehearsal, DJ and production studios that have been quietly popping up all around the UK – has announced a new talent initiative called The Pirate Prodigies that will provide proactive support to three artists among the thousands who regularly book space with the company.
Launching the new initiative, Pirate Studios co-founder David Borrie said: “We have 20,000 musicians in our community, a lot are producing amazing music. We find it incredible some of these guys aren’t already household names so we thought it would be awesome if we could be the ones to give them a helping hand”.
The artists selected for the programme will have access to mentoring from experts across the music industry, will attend masterclasses and workshops, including one run by CMU:DIY, will get unlimited free use of Pirate Studios’ facilities, and additional support producing both recordings and video content.
Other companies supporting the programme include PPL, Flying Vinyl, Various Artists, Fear PR, Music Glue, Radio X, The Great Escape, United Talent Agency, This Feeling and Sentric, while a team of artists, journalists and industry types will also help select the three acts who get to participate in the programme.
Interested artists should apply by 19 Mar here.
