Since 1997, The Academy has mentored, supported and contributed to the careers of over 1000 performers from every corner of Australia and New Zealand, plus one exchange student annually from Nashville, USA, since 2024. It offers two intensive residential courses each year (Senior and Junior) led by award-winning Australian country music professionals and industry leaders, plus our additional online program ‘Academy X’.
'The Academy On The Road' is a brand-new proof of concept event created to reconnect Academy alumni through live performance, community and collaboration.
