Being mentored can make all the difference. With the right support, navigating your music career becomes easier, with insights, experience and fresh perspectives to guide you.
Co-Pilot connects songwriters and composers with experienced mentors who understand the journey because they’ve taken it themselves.
Run by Help Musicians in partnership with The Ivors Academy, Co-Pilot is a dedicated online mentoring network designed to support music creators at every stage of their careers.
There’s no single path to success in music. Co-Pilot offers personalised support to help you find yours, with guidance from a mentor who brings clarity, confidence and insight from experience.
Share your experience and the next generation of songwriters and composers. Mentoring is a chance to give back, develop new skills, gain fresh perspectives and build meaningful connections.
“The music industry can be a lonely field – having a mentor can give you that ‘one foot in’ feeling and make you feel like you’re not doing everything on your own.”
Dominique Levack, singer-songwriter
