Billie No.1

Free Music Production Course in Palmerston North

Most music production courses cost thousands and teach in a classroom. Billie No.1 teaches production the way it is actually learned: in sessions, on real songs, with people who make records, and at no cost.

Palmerston North is a university city, home to Massey University’s main campus, with a young population and a steady local music and theatre scene. It sits at the centre of the lower North Island, a short drive from Wellington. The programme is open to emerging artists from Palmerston North. Get in touch to find out what is running and how to take part from there.
