Back for a second year running, The Bunker & Independent are proud to present their ‘Sunderland Summer Sessions’ project, aimed at providing much needed support and guidance to the new musicians in our City, through a month long residency style set up where the bands will be based out of The Bunker studios.
A new cohort of local emerging artists will receive over 30 hours of free rehearsal and recording time, alongside support from industry professionals and experienced musicians to develop their songwriting, live performance skills, artist management assets (EPK’s, Tech Specs, One Sheets etc) and more. In addition to the valuable support, artists will be encouraged to use the rehearsal time to write new music and spend time working on their songs, exploring new ideas they may not usually have time for. Tangibly, alongside the rehearsal hours and advice, artists will leave the process with a 2 track live sessions video, multi track recorded and mixed with multi-camera angle HD visuals.
Independent and The Bunker, two institutions of music in Sunderland with collectively over 50 years of experience, collaborate on this project to bring tailored industry support to our grassroots musicians with help and advice coming from those working within the music scene in our city and the surrounding areas. The support provided on the whole project is worth over £10,000 and has been put together without additional funding, but relying on volunteers and a number of fundraising events.
The 6 artists from this years uptake will perform a live showcase event at Independent on Saturday 28th September sharing some music they've wrote / developed during the residency. The lineup for this year includes:
