YOUNG MUSIC MAKERS

 

UPDATE: Friday 26th Sept 2025

We had an absolute blast with Jenny Sturgeon and Adam Ross at our songwriting workshop for young people!

Jenny and Adam introduced participants to the most important parts of songwriting, helping the group to write  lyrics and set them to original chords and melodies.

The group created a wonderful track entitled ‘Violet Clouds’ which you can listen to on Bandcamp here

Below are some photos from the two day workshop…
