The Bandpool is the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg's top support program that operates outside of the course offerings. Bands, solo artists and producers from all over Germany are coached and supported over 18 months during ten workshop weekends in Mannheim. The aim is to prepare them for their entry into the professional music business.
“Since 1998, the Bandpool has been an outstanding support program that has already shaped numerous careers. Over 150 acts have benefited from this support and we are proud of our results: 70 major deals, 86 chart placements, several gold awards, several ECHO nominations, two ECHOs, nine Radio Regenbogen Awards and numerous other prizes. Bands such as ClockClock, Revolverheld, Max Giesinger, Lotte, Provinz and NOVAA started their careers from here,” says Michael Herberger, Business Director and Managing Director of the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg.“In the Bandpool, we focus on holistic and individual support for artists on their path to success. We provide them with the necessary knowledge and optimal tools so that they can successfully assert themselves in the music market and realize their artistic vision. Our artists can rely on us to provide them with the support they need at every stage of their career,” says Daniel Schmidt, Head of Artist Agency Klinkt, Bandpool, Regionet. The application phase runs until Sunday, November 24, 2024 for the 27th generation of the Popakademie Bandpool. The project is free of charge for participants. The focus is on individual coaching and support measures and the development of a functioning business partner network. Together with experts from the industry, the Popakademie team works with the musicians on important topics, from songwriting to interview training, from music law to strategic planning.Apply by 24.11.24 at: https://bandpool.de/bewirb-dich/ About the band pool: https://bandpool.de/
