Recording Opportunity for Youth 18 & under. We are taking submissions of interest to be a part of our recording sessions at the legendary Roundhead Studios with a professional sound engineer, for our next community compilation album for the Songwriters 4 Climate Action Project. 💚 We’re looking for 12 Auckland-based artists to contribute an original song or spoken word / poetry piece to be a part of SW4CA Vol.3 - Rangatahi. Got something original with an environmental or climate conscious theme that could suit? Want to help be a part of a social movement for change? We’d love to get a range of perspectives. (For songs we are looking at striped back acoustic versions, not full band set ups.) Recording dates are weekends 9-10 & 23-24 November. Album Release early 2025.
Being a part of this project will also give participants the chance to get studio ready with some mentor sessions, attend workshops, events and have access to future performance opportunities if they wish.
Submissions close Sunday 6 October, 11.59pm.
