Music City Mentors Open to aspiring music professionals ages 15 and older! Make plans to join WSM for our inaugural Music City Mentors event on Saturday, March 23 at The Factory at Franklin in Tennessee (just south of Nashville).
Pairing top entertainment professionals with individuals who dream of a career in the music industry, Music City Mentors will provide instructional panel discussions and professional development opportunities to aspiring music professionals ages 15 and over. No matter your area of interest in the music industry, we’re sure to have something for everyone!
SVP Artist Relations and Grand Ole Opry GM, Sally Williams, will give the keynote address.
The event will feature 45-minute panel-led sessions focusing on tips for landing a record deal, songwriting, publishing, artist management, tour life, working behind-the-scenes, marketing, money management, music distribution, performance, publicity, and everything in between.
Throughout the day, participants will have the opportunity to take part in a job fair featuring venues, companies, and entertainment employers. Attendees will conclude the day of unique professional development with “speed networking” opportunities from best-in-the-business professionals.
