Music Zines: A Beginners Workshop
Take the do-it-yourself approach to promoting your music, with help from SLQ.
Overview
Are you a budding musician, wanting to make a break in the music industry? Are you searching for the right words for your songs, or the right pathway to promote your work? The State Library of Queensland may be your answer, with their Music Zines for Beginners workshop.
Cultural Seed Planter and “Zinester” Jeremy Staples will be lending a hand to those looking to get ahead, be it from the very beginning stages of creating and producing music, to promoting it through your own, hand-crafted zine.
This is just one of the beginner workshops available at the library – lyrics, recording, creating cover art and promo posters, as well as music videos can all come to life by means of the right class.
This is all part of the State Library’s “Live! Queensland Band Culture” exhibition, which aims to shine a light on local musical talents past and present through performances, historical showcases and informative events.
