World class music can be created in a regional setting, and knowing how to make the most of it changes everything. From the first recording session to release day, this masterclass is designed to take you inside the real life experiences of a regional artist who has successfully recorded and released their own original music.

Join us at Mix Artist Studio to hear from singer-songwriter Emily Lubitz & studio owner & producer Jan Muths as they walk you through the recording & releasing journey of Emily’s #1 ARIA Country charting and acclaimed album Two Black Horses. Leave with a clear, practical understanding of how to record, produce and release your music independently and on your own terms.

You'll get the most out of this masterclass if you are an early or mid-career artist who is ready to record and release an album, single or EP.
