Even during the development programme, you are welcome to sign a management deal with a music manager. Please subscribe for more. Is this a traditional deal? This is not that.
The term in our name only relates to the fact that this is an all-around, degree programme that develops you in all areas. Am I tied to you if I get signed? But we also believe and understand that you need to have choice and free will with who you choose to work with in your career especially when working in a creative sector like music and so there are no ties to us if you get signed. How long do the programmes last? We offer programmes of different lengths — 12, 18 and 24 months.
Can you tailor something for me? The current structured development programmes are put together from what artists commonly ask for, to make it easy to see what things cost. However, it can be as flexible as you want. What genres of music do you work with? Do you develop DJs?
To understand our pricing structure please watch the videos on the pricing tab as it explains everything about this commonly asked question and will also help you if you are looking elsewhere and want to understand different terms of business. What do I have to do to get onto a programme?
We only take on a small number of artists at a time to our development programmes. First you should ensure that you have watched the video on whether this is right for you. Then if you meet those requirements and are ready to apply, please send us a message with a link or file to listen to you, along with a photograph and a short text about you and why you feel a development programme would be beneficial to you. We will then review this and get back to you either with a decision that your application is not successful with reasons why or inviting you for a video call to interview you and answer any questions you have.
Should you be successful and offered a place, you will be sent a contract to sign and you make the first payment. Your programme then begins!
Can I cancel part way through if I change my plans? We completely understand your worries because we get asked this question a lot. Committing to such a long period of time can be daunting and worries about whether you will always be able to afford the monthly payments, what would happen if you got signed part way through or other concerns can create pre-signing nerves. The development programmes are a fixed cost and the ability to pay monthly is to help you.
To help you be more confident in your decision, almost all our artists go on to work with us on another contract after their initial programme! How old do you have to be to take a programme? Can I do songs by themselves? From single song agreements to doing a photoshoot — everything can be purchased separately and added on to any programme too.
Do I have to come to Leeds for every lesson? Am I too old for all this? The music industry has changed. Anyone, of any age can find a fanbase who are into their music and furthermore there are other opportunities to earn in music, such as songs for TV, Film and Adverts also known as sync music in which more mature voices can have great success, as it just depends on the scenes and music required.
Is there a place for me in the music industry? The music industry is not just about the narrow Top style of music — and even that is what you are aiming for, it is ever-changing in what is ultimately popular. Just look at the rise in rap music into the charts which would have been unheard of 10 years ago.
You should be yourself, create your own style of music and find the fanbase that loves it. Not everyone likes every style of music or every artist but there will be people in this connected world we live in, who will become your fanbase and so therefore the answer to this question is, yes there is definitely a place for you in the music industry. With all the packages, how many days a week do you have to dedicate to it?
It is extremely easy to fit these programmes into your own lifestyle. Some singers who have full time jobs and children of their own come once a month and do the programme work of an evening when children are in bed. Could I accelerate my programme upgrade later or does it have to be dependent on the contract I sign? While you cannot downgrade your contract, you can upgrade part way through. New costings will be worked out with you and a new contract singed to replace the current one.
Finding the right producer for your music is really important. If you were to hire three different producers to work on the same song idea, all three productions will come out sounding completely different! However, finding a producer is not just about making sure that they can make your music sound great — it is also about making sure that they can make you feel comfortable in the studio, so that you give your best performance.
We have over 10 years of experience in producing different genres, but if you want a test run before committing to a full programme you can take us up on a single song agreement!
Please do! We love mixing up cultures and sounds into modern music. We have done this in many different ways before. We have masses of virtual instruments that cover a lot of different instrument sounds and we also have a vast array of session musicians all over the world who we can call upon to play on your music.
Will I earn money back from it? It is highly unlikely that you will earn any significant money back from the music you are making whilst on the programme. The reason for that is because you are at the stage of building a fanbase -and so streaming numbers will not be as large as when your career has taken off.
Think of it like an apprenticeship. You can see the general streaming payouts on this calculator. The ways in which you can earn money during the programme are from streams, paid gigs, sync music pay-outs music on TV which can pay thousands per song sponsorship, record company advances etc. In order to get onto a development programme you have to pass an audition process. Believe it or not, many famous artists would describe themselves as being not very confident.
It can really help to calm nerves if you have that ability not to see it as you stood on the stage, but your artist persona instead. We have had artists on our programme who have suffered with severe anxiety, even a fear of being outside before and yet we have seen all of them through a development programme and built their confidence to the point where they are releasing music, singing on stage and appearing in cover videos.
We will embrace it and help you to overcome it. I am already working with someone for free. You can watch this video to see what a development programme is like and decide if it is worth your investment.
Do I need artist development? The question of whether you need artist development is an entirely individual thing. What stages do you think an athlete has to go through to reach the top of their game?
First of all, they would need training. They need to learn how to master their chosen sport. They would need a great fitness and diet regime.
They would need tons of practise. They would need to show up and bring their A-game every time until they reached the pinnacle of their career and finally won an Olympic medal. We can all imagine how much work is involved to make such a person. So now consider the same for a singer who wants to become famous. You will need to learn and hone your skills until you become incredible, not just at singing but at managing and growing a fanbase, performing on stage, recording in the studio and more.
Secondly this question covers the fact that you need to have radio-ready songs recorded to promote yourself to the industry and have fans who will follow you. This is usually included in artist development packages.
You need artist development if you are not yet at that top Music-Olympic level but also if you just want one place to go to in order to develop fully. It is so hard and costly to hire everyone needed separately — singing teachers, personal stylist, makeup artist, photographer, industry coaches, producers, recording studios, engineers, songwriters.. If that is what you need to reach the next step in your career then an artist development programme could be for you.

Will you get famous? Nobody can guarantee that. Just consider some of the success stories and testimonials from our artists: Testimonials. You are free to work with us after you are signed…or not! No, we do not work with DJ development. Following the video call, you will be contacted again with a decision. You must be 13 years old as a minimum. There is no upper age limit. No, we often conduct lessons by video call to save our artists having to travel.
The only type of lesson that genuinely is better to have in person is singing. Therefore, do not give up your dreams simply because of your age. We welcome older applicants.

Terms and conditions. His music is retro, to be sure, but it sounds fresh in Crockett's hands. He seems a born entertainer, and he dresses the part: On Saturday, he spotted a spiffy lavender suit with rhinestone accents.
What are people wearing to ACL Fest ? And Crockett is nothing if not creatively humble. Near the end of the set, he kindly asked the crowd, "If you like what you hear, visit the merch table. And if you didn't like it, that's OK too; make a small donation so I can get some lessons.
