Spill the Tea Episode 2 - July 21st

We’re back! You voted, we listened. Join us here on AHSLive! on Monday, July 21 @ 3p PST / 6p EST for Spill The Tea Episode No. 2 “Recording/Session Work”!  Pop in for a live panel discussion around what session work looks like - i.e. broad strokes of what it means to “be prepared”, cultivating work relationships, navigating mics, “On/Off Book” and so much more, but most importantly, creating what you do best so contractors and producers can’t help but want you on their session! Joining us for the B side is Juliette Jones, violinist, arranger and bi-coastal powerhouse contractor. We can’t wait to Spill The Tea!

AHS's "Spill The Tea … on all things harp” is a platform every harpist will want in their favorites/saved box and Home Screen. Topic focused, Spill The Tea’s mission is to spark discussions on how to navigate through an array of spaces (ie weddings/events, orchestral auditions, audio/technology, helping build strong chapter community, marketing/social media, starting a teaching studio and so much more). Facilitated by a panel of harpists from various genres and special guests, Spill The Tea hopes to bring different perspectives to help today’s harpist create and continue their musical paths.
