Free music-making woorkshop for young musicians and creatives in North East Lincolnshire

Beats, Records & Rhythm

A free music-making workshop for 16–25-year-olds

Ever wondered how to make your own beats? Join musician, producer and composer Kobby Taylor for a hands-on workshop where you'll learn how to put together your own 16-beat rhythm and mix it onto a turntable.

No experience needed – just bring your ears, ideas and love of music!

But there's more to it than making music. This workshop is part of the R&D for a brand-new piece of theatre set in a record shop, currently by local writer, Evie Henderson (GRIMM (https://www.google.com/url?q=https://evangelinehenderso.wixsite.com/evangeline-henderson/current-project&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1794571723928135&usg=AOvVaw0Ex2OlJYYNVh0WjncMjYYB)). We're exploring the musical landscape of the area and want the music, stories and experiences of local young people to help shape the world of the play.

What music means something to you? What should be playing in a local record shop? What sounds, artists and stories deserve to be heard?

Come along, have your say, make some beats and help us bring the musical world of the play to life.
