#CBC and #SOCAN #Music are launching the #CBCIndigenousMusicResidency, a new #songwriting program for six #IndigenousMusicians that supports their growth and artistry. Eligible #Indigenous #MusicArtists can submit their songs for consideration until Aug. 29.

Six participants — two #FirstNations, two #Inuit and two #Métis artists — will be selected. They will have costs and accommodation covered for four weeks in #Toronto, where they will work on two new songs. While completing the #MusicResidency, they will receive #mentorship, access to CBC video and production facilities, and networking opportunities with #MusicIndustry experts. The program will end with the #musicians performing their new works at a live event.
