Norfolk Music Hub and BBC Introducing Norfolk invite 14-17 year old females throughout Norfolk to take part in our exciting new project launching in Autumn 2020!
With this project we aim to empower young females – regardless of previous musical experience – to write and perform music, to build self-confidence and engage in contemporary music making opportunities.
This project will cover song writing, collaborating, recording, producing and Q&A’s with lead professionals. We will also offer mentoring and professional feedback and the opportunity for artists and their work to be showcased on BBC Introducing Norfolk.

Mentoring and Feedback

Students will be assigned a mentor who is best matched to both musical interest and skillset.
