About Music Production for Women

Music Production for Women was created to encourage and empower more women in the field of music production and technology, areas in which women are currently heavily under-represented.

Our aim is to give female musicians the skills necessary to take on the music industry with confidence and to help and guide them through every step of the process through providing education, community support, visible role models and encouragement.

In the last 4 years MPW has delivered classes to over 7000 students from over 120 countries around the globe.

Although our aim is to improve gender diversity in music, our classes are open to everyone to attend.

FAQ's

Who is the EmpowHer Sound Workshop series for?

This workshop series has been designed for artists who want to start producing and mixing their music and rely less heavily on others to do this for them. It is also for all independant artists who want to learn about the music business to find opportunities to monetise their creations.

Can I attend only one of the three sessions?

Yes, no problem!

How much does it cost?

The cost to attend each workshop is only $15, however you can also purchase a discounted group ticket for all three workshops for only $30 (working out to $10 per workshop). Each ticket sold will contribute to planting three trees, and a group ticket will help to plant nine!

Are there any free places available for those with financial difficulties?

We have priced these workshops at a very low cost to allow it to be accessible to all musicians, regardless of their financial situation, however if you are still experiencing hardship and cannot accord a ticket, please e-mail us at support@musicproductionforwomen.com

What previous skills do I need to attend?

Will I be pressured to buy a program?

Absolutely not! At the core of what we do at MPW is a one-year program that currently has a waitlist. We will introduce this program to you during the event in case you would like to work with us more closely and further build on the skills that you've learnt during the workshops, however if you feel you've got the inspiration from the workshops that you need, then that is perfectly fine and we'll be happy to have gotten to spend those days with you!

What should I prepare for the workshops?

The best way to prepare for the event is to be 10 mins early as our Zoom numbers can sometimes reach capacity. Don't feel the need to have a production software to follow along as our teachers will be going through this with everyone together, however please have something to take PLENTY of notes on, whether this is a book or your laptop.

Are the sessions online?
