The Program

The RISE Workshop Program Is Designed To Show You How To Work Outside The Rapidly Outdating System.

With the dizzying way technology is exploding, the best and certain way to stay on top of your game is to keep educating yourself!

Mykee and Johnnie have cleverly combined music biz with modern technology that will quickly show you the shortcut to success while most other musicians are still plodding along the old beaten path.

The difference becomes obvious when RISE participants who happen to be full time music students elsewhere, express their excitement about what we teach and sadly tell us that the topics we cover at RISE simply don’t get a mention whatsoever in their expensive 1-3 year music courses.

So why pay a fortune, then sit in a classroom for 1-3 years and still miss out on the latest strategies that are working for other ‘clued-in’ musicians all over the world.  Why not reap the instant rewards of getting your music out to an international audience after just 1 day!

RISE is not one of those “lecture style” seminars… it’s fun, interesting, exciting, unpredictable and full of like minded creative people, but more importantly…

You’ll walk in totally green not knowing much about this stuff at all…
By the end of the day, you’ll have the know-how and confidence to be able to put your music career on steroids!


And just in case you were wondering… “YES” there is a hellova lot more than just having a MySpace or Facebook Fan page!!!

We’ll cover everything from A-Z and by the end of the day, your mind will be buzzing!  You’ll be a much clearer about exactly what you want, which direction you want to go and what options you have to make it all possible.

At 5pm you’ll be walking out the door with a head full of incredible plans and ideas, to share with your band members, manager, friends and family.  The most exciting part is that you’ll be able to start the ball rolling the very same night if you want!

So here’s a basic run-down of the RISE workshop program – but be warned – don’t let these simple words fool you into thinking you already know this stuff.  We can safely say that if you let this pass, once you hear others talking about what they learnt at RISE and you’ll be wishing that you jumped on the opportunity to attend.
