Built for musicians, by musicians, Output has become known for building products that address the specific needs of its music-making community. Through a recent survey with up-and-coming music makers, Output found that the overwhelming majority want to develop deeper professional relationships in the industry to support their career growth. Since its inception 10 years ago, Output has been building deep connections in the music industry and saw CoLAB as an opportunity to open these connections to the broader community.
CoLAB is a natural extension of Output, a company committed to building technology grounded in human connection and artistry. Rooted in collaboration and mentorship, the program will provide opportunities for aspiring artists to connect with CoLAB partners – including world-class artists, creators and producers, educational institutions, and other music industry veterans – and learn from the best.
"The music industry is becoming increasingly more complex and challenging to navigate – especially for artists early in their career," said Gregg Lehrman, Founder and CEO of Output. "At a time when artistry is being threatened by AI-generated music, human collaboration and creativity is more important than ever. We created CoLAB with the goal of empowering music-makers with the resources and connections to grow their music careers."
In the summer of 2024, Output and Stargate launched a contest for one lucky artist to secure a spot in LAAMP's six-week online session where participants will collaborate with other musicians and engage in workshops led by music heavyweights, Benny Blanco, Emily Warren, NeYo, and more.
Additionally, to celebrate the launch of CoLAB, Output is giving away a trip to LA, time spent in a world-class studio, and mentorship for one lucky winner. Output will be tapping its partners, including De-Fi, Novation, Shure, and Range Music on the mentorship.
