Musicians share their experiences in the music industry with a frank look at how their career can help you with yours

Creative Careers is taking a look at the music industry this month and is inviting a panel of music makers to share what inspires and informs their art.  We’ll uncover the hidden gems that can make or break your career, how to start your projects and how to get stuff moving. 

From founding a festival or managing a choir to simply believing in yourself and taking the first step, all will be covered in the session that we hope leaves you feeling inspired and informed. 

And as always, dinner is on us.

Panellists

Luisa Gerstein is a musician who has played in the bands Landshapes and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs. Most recently she formed all-female singing collective - Deep Throat Choir. The project is driven by the simple desire to bring music making back to basic elements: voices and drums. Through the choir, Luisa’s output works with intricate vocal melody and well placed harmony. Through compounded vocal arrangement, the choir allows us to hear vocal arrangement both stripped back and bolstered at the same time. ‘Be Ok’ is out on Bella Union now.
