Then the SXSW Music Mentor Program is for you! The program is designed to give direct access to industry professionals who have agreed to share their time and experience with others. Experts from all aspects of the music business will be on hand to provide you with valuable advice that you can use.

Receive personalized input by scheduling one-on-one meetings with the mentor of your choice. The SXSW Music Mentor Program runs all four days (Wednesday, March 14 - Saturday, March 17) of the 2012 SXSW Music Conference. Online sign-up will begin in late February.

Register to attend. There will be seven mentor sessions this year with a variety of mentors just waiting to share their vast knowledge of the biz with you! And, if you have any questions about the mentor sessions, please feel free to email musicpanels@sxsw.com.
