APPLICATIONS WILL OPEN ON DECEMBER 15.

We are looking to build a cohort of curious and confrontational musical artists.

You can be coming from any style/genre, and there are no requirements in terms of age or education.

We are looking for individuals coming from a wide variety of musical backgrounds, who are looking to expand their scope.

We will ask you to include:

• Some work samples, in whatever format is best for us to experience what you’re about, with a bit of info about each work.

• A short statement: Where do you see your music going? What kind of project(s) do you want to make that you haven’t made yet?

• A bio: Who are you and where are you from?

As part of the review process, we may reach out to ask you further questions about your music and your artistic goals. We will use this information to tailor our program as personally as possible toward the individual needs of our 2026 cohort.

Tuition is $2400, with all meals and lodging included. Need-based scholarships and payment plans will be available.

Return to this page on or after December 15, 2025 to begin an application. In the meantime, feel free to reach out to rchander@unsettlementmusic.com if you have questions.
