The hands on course promises to develop skills in songwriting, recording, rehearsal techniques, performance, stagecraft, vocal techniques and more – all under the guidance of Barnard.
“At the end of the year I take the students on the road with me – as my band,” said Barnard in a statement. “We played at venues along the Great Ocean Road – including Apollo Bay, Lorne and Aries Inlet. The gig in Lorne just went off – and the students got a taste of how it feels to be wanted and have their music appreciated.”
As well as receiving experience and paid gigs, successful applicants will complete the course with a full Certificate IV in Music.
Rebecca Barnard is an Australian singer/songwriter, garnering success with her band Rebecca’s Empire alongside an acclaimed solo career.
