This episode features Ayesha, Managing Director and Co-founder of GRID Series (@grid_series_presents), a platform supporting creatives in Australia, and Shantanu, one of five members from Manorism (@manorismband), a band that GRID Series supports. Ayesha began GRID Series in a pub, and has evolved it into a platform that builds bridges between early career creatives in outer suburbs around Australia and the industries they wish to innovate. Manorism is a dream pop and heartland band from suburbia in Melbourne's deep South East. Both share how their journeys intertwined and how the music industry has evolved, and is still evolving, today. Listen to our episode on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and Google Podcasts.
