Industry Insights: Releasing your music pt.1

The session is open to all women, non-binary, trans and gender non-conforming folks who want to attend. It is hosted on Zoom.

------------

After having to push back our original session due to unforeseen circumstances, we are happy to present a new date for the first in a three-part series of workshops hosted by indie music distribution specialist Kameil Sattar!

In this first workshop, we'll look at how to get your release ready for the market, paying particular attention to the areas of metadata and assets you need to have ready for your release. We'll consider the benefits and drawbacks of self-releasing vs finding a label/distributor and help you work out which route feels right for you.

(If you've already purchased a ticket to the original session drop us an email at hello@saffronmusic.co.uk and we'll be happy to share the new Zoom link or issue a refund.)
