FANCY building yourself a career in the music business? Then help maybe at hand.

Auditions for an event which ties together various strands of the music world will take place in Manchester on August 9.

Entitled Project Talent UK , the aim is to fast track the pick of the undiscovered talent in the fields of music, fashion, beauty and media into the next level of the business.

Buoyed by a host of backers, including music training and development organisation Urban Voice and supported by Channel 4’s 4Talent and the Mayor Of London – the best performers from the auditions will be sent on a workshop session in London where they’ll receive one-on-one training from a range of experts.

From there, twelve artists will be chosen to take part in a two-week residential programme of masterclasses on subjects like music production, fashion styling, hair and beauty, business enterprise, media and photography.

Media

There the winning participants from music production, fashion, beauty and media will be put into teams with the vocal artists and come together to create a real-life working scenario which will take the artists through making a record in the studio, to a photo shoot and then a music video.

This process will be mentored by key high profile industry professionals.

Then a final showcase event, taking place in London this November, will feature all twelve performers, freshly styled and newly polished to their full potential.

They will perform in front of a panel of judges as well as a audience of 1,000 members of the public and the media.

Up for grabs are a Development deal with Music World Entertainment International, a digital single record deal, and thousands of pounds worth of music making equipment.

The Auditions take place at the Zion Arts Centre in Hulme on Thursday, August 9. Click here for more information.
