Get to Know BBC Introducing with Shakk

Join BBC Introducing North East presenter Shakk for an essential workshop designed to help emerging artists understand how BBC Introducing works and how to make the most of the opportunities it offers.

Whether you're preparing to release your first tracks or looking to grow your audience, this session will demystify the BBC Introducing process and show you how to get your music heard. You'll learn how to use the uploader effectively, connect with local BBC Introducing teams, and increase your chances of securing airplay and wider exposure.

Drawing on insider knowledge and real-world experience, Shakk will share practical advice on navigating the platform, building visibility, and taking proactive steps to develop your music career.

Who is it for?
This workshop is aimed at early-career artists and emerging musicians who are ready to start releasing music and building their profile. It's particularly valuable for those who are new to the industry, lack established connections, or want a clearer understanding of how to access opportunities through BBC Introducing.
