The Bank of Melbourne’s Music Bank could make you the next big name in music.
The community driven music initiative for aspiring music artists is offering a break into the music industry. The ‘Melbourne Music Bank’ is calling for local musicians and bands to submit a song inspired by the city of Melbourne for the chance to win a career-making prize.
With two days of recording at Sing Sing Studios, a video clip by film maker Wilk, live gigs, album artwork, 500 CDs, PR and marketing advice, and the chance to have their song used in a Bank of Melbourne advertising campaign up for grabs, you’ll want to be involved.
Ambassador of the comepetition is ARIA winning, Melbourne-based musician, Ella Hooper, from Killing Heidi. Ella says the prize could change the life of a talented local band or musician. “I got my big break after being discovered at a local fete in Violet Town. It led to free studio time to record and now here I am today!”
Open to all Victorian songwriters and musicians, submissions close September 7. Twelve finalists will be shortlisted and a public vote will narrow it down to four. These four will perform live at the Melbourne Recital Centre where a panel of music experts will choose the winner.
