Always putting an emphasis on being community-focused, Bello Winter Music Festival have once again opened up their Youth Mentorship Program and announced this year's mentors.

Emerging artists under 19 will work under mentors such as festival patron Jack Carty (he'll look over the Singer Songwriter category), folk duo Hussy Hicks (Band category), alt-country singer Sara Tindley (Vocal category) and Ben Wilson (Under 15 Years category).

Bello Winter Music's organiser, Nino Haggith, says, "This year’s mentors are all exceptional artists who have an invaluable wealth of performance and industry experience to share with their category winners.

"The Youth Mentorship Program is all about encouraging, developing and nurturing our region’s up and coming artists and their stories through their music. We look forward to applications for this year’s mentorship program."

Applications are now open for the Youth Mentorship Program until Friday, 2 June. 

The Music is proud to present Bello Winter Music Festival.
