Bandjam offers young people the opportunity to experience playing or singing in a rock/pop band together. Led by professional music leaders, the session covers guitars, drums and vocals. The session also gives them a chance to work on these elements separately.
We run Open Mics as part of our Amplify Youth Voice series of events for 16-25s.
Anyone is welcome to come along, whether you want to perform something or whether you just want to watch others. All abilities are welcome and you don’t have to have a polished performance ready – works in progress are fine!
