At Rhiza Music, we're passionate about connecting emerging artists with organisations that can help them grow, develop their skills, and build sustainable careers in music. That's why we're highlighting the fantastic work of Generator, one of the UK's leading music development organisations.
Founded in 1991, Generator has spent more than three decades championing music, culture, and creativity across the North of England. Their mission is simple: to ensure talented artists, creative entrepreneurs, and music professionals have access to the opportunities, networks, and industry knowledge they need to succeed regardless of where they're from.
Generator delivers a wide range of programmes designed to support artists at every stage of their journey. From practical workshops and mentoring to one-to-one industry advice, artist development programmes, live performance opportunities, funding initiatives, and international export projects, they provide invaluable support for those looking to take the next step in their careers.
Beyond artist development, Generator works with major industry partners including Arts Council England, Help Musicians, Warner Music UK, EMI North, PRS, PPL and Youth Music to create pathways into the music industry and strengthen the creative economy across the region. Their work also includes championing underrepresented voices, supporting creative businesses, and building stronger music communities throughout the North.
