Mullum Music Festival Announce Lior, William Crighton & More For Youth Mentorship Program

The Mullum Music Festival Youth Mentorship Program is back for another year in 2018!

Now in its ninth year, the program will pair four young emerging artists with four of the festival's finest acts to give them an exclusive opportunity to collaborate and be mentored during the event.

This year's mentors are Husky for the Band Category, Lior for the Singer-Songwriter Category, Shelly Brown for the Vocal Category and William Crighton for the Under 15 Years Category. 

Four emerging acts, all aged under 19, will receive a rehearsal session with their mentor, a 20 minute performance at the festival with their mentor backstage, the opportunity to watch their mentor perform from backstage and a weekend pass to the festival.

"This year's mentors are all exceptional artists who have an invaluable wealth of performance and industry experience to share with their category winners," said Mullum Music General Manager, Nino Haggith.

"The Youth Mentorship Program is all about encouraging, developing and nurturing up and coming artists and their stories through their music. We look forward to applications for this year's mentorship program."

Applications for the mentorship program are now open via the Mullum Music Festival website here, with applications closing on 26 October.

This year's Mullum Music Festival takes place from 15-18 November 2018 throughout the town of Mullumbimby in the NSW Northern Rivers region. Tickets are on sale now; head to theGuide for more info and to check out the full line-up.
