A recurring, community-led series of events—workshops, panels, Q&As, and networking sessions—where working music professionals share their experience with aspiring artists.

Our mission is to democratise music industry knowledge, build community, and empower independent artists with the tools to thrive.

Independent musicians are expected to “do it all”—manage, promote, tour, monetise—with no real guidance. This, along with most music education in The Netherlands being largely in Dutch, makes it incredibly difficult to succeed as an international musician in The Netherlands.

The new generation of artists is hungry for real-world, relevant knowledge from people actually doing it. They want to stay independent, get paid, and stay sane. We’re creating the space we wish existed: honest, open, non- hierarchical, and rooted in experience.

In short, everyone. Whether you’re an independent musician, an aspiring manager, or really just anyone trying to make a sustainable career in the industry.

We cover everything from songwriting to copyright law. All genres, all backgrounds, all experience levels welcome.

Every quarter (3 months), we cover an overarching topic. Within that quarter, we invite guest speakers and hosts for bi-monthly panels, Q&A sessions, workshops, and networking sessions. At the end, we celebrate with a graduation night—complete with (non official) diplomas, invitations for friends and family, and of course, live music.
