The music industry has 50+ careers.
We bring them to your students.
Backstage is a live, on-campus experience where students meet working professionals from across the music industry — and discover the careers behind the music.
Students see one job.
The industry has fifty.
Ask a student to name a music career and you’ll hear one answer: the artist. Behind every release is an industry of producers, engineers, managers, lawyers, and analysts — the careers most students never knew existed.
Bring the industry onto campus.
Not a webinar. Not a brochure. Backstage is a live, on-campus experience where students don’t just hear about these careers — they meet the people building them.
Real sessions. Real questions. Real conversations — in the room, in real time.
The experience deploys to your students, in a space they already know.
Insight straight from the executives and creators who run these roles every day.
How a Backstage day runs.
Opening Keynote
An industry leader opens the day — where music careers actually are, and where they’re heading.
Career Panels
Producers, managers, A&Rs and engineers break down what they really do — and how they got in.
Hands-On Workshops
Students do the work — shape a track, pitch an artist, read a deal. The job, not the lecture.
1:1 Mentoring
Direct conversations with professionals about real, individual routes into the industry.
Next Steps
Students leave with mentor contacts, resources, and a concrete map of where to go next.

A Path Forward

Open Doors
An industry that welcomes talent from every background — diversity as a feature, not a footnote.
