This group consists of independent musicians who also come together as a band for collective collaborations. 

Opportunities for AO young leaders may include:

  • Opportunities to develop skills in leading music making sessions with other young people in schools and community settings.
  • A broad range of performance opportunities as individuals and as a band at festivals, live events and conferences.
  • Opportunities to develop marketing and communications content.
  • Advocacy and promotion of AO and themselves as individual artists.
