Mentoring with Mentorly

Mentorly, a wonderful new website catering to help creative souls, recently launched. Mentorly is a marketplace where artists can easily connect and inspire each other through mentorship. As of today, I am officially a mentor with Mentorly. This means that wherever you are in the world, you can have the opportunity to take a one-on-one mentoring session with me!

To book a mentoring session with me, please visit https://mentorly.co/mentors and then scroll under ‘Music’.

Please Note: for people in the Montreal region, I do mentor in person as well so please message me directly instead of booking your session thru Mentorly.

Here are some of my skills I will share with you:

– Singing

– Songwriting

– Song Critique

– Social Media

– Festival Applications

– The Art of Networking

– Organizational Skills

– Time Management

– Music Business: artist development, branding, building a team, marketing, promotion, releasing music, contracts, how to independently release music, copyrights, royalties, music associations, and much much more

As you already know, I’m an award winning Pop/RnB singer-songwriter from Montreal. I have released 2 EPs and 3 singles and I am currently working on new music to be released in 2017. I am the recipient winner of the 2016 Hollywood Music in Media Awards for Best Dance song with my latest single “Pop Army” and I placed #13 on UK’s Music Week Top 30 Commercial Pop Club Chart. I’ve collaborated with renowned mastering engineer Gene Grimaldi (Lady Gaga, Nicki Minaj), platinum award winning/ top charting UK DJ Cutmore and many more great talents. My debut EP was nominated for the 2016 IMEA Awards and I also signed sync licenses with major networks including MTV, E! Entertainment, Oxygen, A&E, and Discovery/ TLC! I have recently signed a licensing deal with the Korean label Contentscube where my music is set for release this summer and fall.

I am currently the coordinator of the Songwriters Association of Canada’s Regional Writers Group for the Montreal region. If you are located in the Montreal region, you are very welcome to join it.

I’ve been in music since the age of four. I am a classically trained musician and took all the classes a musician must take: ear training, theory, history of music, etc. But the one thing they don’t teach you is the business side of the industry. I know firsthand how important and valuable it is to have someone mentor you through this industry. I self-taught myself everything I know today and I am now eager to share my knowledge with all of you. I am here to teach you the art of artistpreneurship. If you want to learn about songwriting or the business side of the music industry, I am here to help you. I am here to teach everything from how to write a hit song, social media, branding, how to independently release a single, marketing, promo, and much much more. Whatever you need to know, I am here to share my knowledge with you. Each session is created around your specific needs in order to cater to each and every artist. I will be here to mentor you and guide you through this exciting journey that is the music industry.

Much love,

NJ XO
