Bridging Barriers is a unique programme for those seeking careers in the music industry to learn skills and gain qualifications in music technology and stagecraft. This Birmingham-based project is backed by Youth Music, thanks to players of People's Postcode Lottery.

The North Birmingham project has hosted workshops from featured vocalist with The Streets Kevin Mark Trail and Grammy nominated Producer/Songwriter Hannah V. Project participants have worked on tour rehearsals for Boyzlife, live performances from Europe’s finest female a cappella quintet Black Voices and recordings for the 2022 Commonwealth Games opening ceremony.  
 
Over the course of 18 months, participants have learned and put into practice the essential creative disciplines in music production including writing, mixing and mastering.
