Jamie BurneIt has been a positive experience which has impacted on my confidence to create networks of musicians within the local area and beyond.
Complete Control Music
Complete Control Music (CCM) works with 14-19 year olds involved in making music. It is a mentoring scheme which gives practical advice on the music industry along with opportunities to promote and develop their work, offering recording opportunities, possible releases, gigs, support and advice.
This project works with a wide range of young people from many different musical genres, from singer songwriters to bands to DJs. CCM pairs young people with mentors who have worked professionally within the music industry to provide specialised face to face mentoring. It targets disaffected young people who may not reach their full potential through traditional learning, and through recognising and encouraging their musical talents seeks to improve their sense of worth, self confidence, communication, business skills and enable them to create a brighter future for themselves.
We have run a similar scheme to this in the past targeting those over 18, and helped musicians who have gone on to be in internationally recognised bands such as Bullet For My Valentine, Funeral For a Friend, Akira the Don, Goldie Lookin Chain, Amy Wadge, Mclusky, Jarcrew and Future of the Left.
This project is part of Reach the Heights and is part funded by the European Social Fund.
