Need a fresh work space while on your international tour, or while based in a foreign city? Good news! APRA members now have access to entertainment-oriented work spaces in LA, Nashville, and London.
During a week of whirlwind member events held in Los Angeles, Nashville and London, APRA AMCOS Head of Member Services and incoming CEO Dean Ormston announced that the music rights organisation is offering dedicated workspace to its members and their managers who are increasingly travelling to those cities for professional opportunities.
Partnering with InDo (pictured) in the heart of Nashville’s music community, APRA AMCOS will not only have desk space and office amenities but writers’ rooms and performance space available.
Hotdesks and office space are available at the legendary RAK Studios in London, where artists including Adele, Arctic Monkeys, Radiohead and Midnight Oil have recorded.
In LA, there is desk space available in Hollywood at IgnitedSpaces, a multi-functional hub for a variety of entertainment companies. Plans are underway to offer writers’ rooms and performance spaces in LA and London, with Berlin facilities on the horizon as well.
With APRA AMCOS international representatives already well-established in LA, Nashville and London, the spaces are an investment in the ever-growing contingent of Australian and New Zealand songwriters, producers and composers who are making breakthroughs in the global music industry.
Ormston commented on the initiative: “Today’s global music market is bringing unprecedented overseas opportunities to Aussie and Kiwi songwriters and composers, and APRA AMCOS is committed to travelling with our members every step of the way. With more of our members heading to the world’s most competitive creative hubs, we’re keen to support their creative and business objectives.”
