Future Flow 🎤💫

Future Flow is our newest and most exciting project to date in collaboration with Grove Park Youth Club and funded by Arts Council National Lottery Project Grants. Over 40 weeks our weekly music studio sessions will invite local young people age 11-17 (up to 21 SEND*) to unlock their musical futures and get involved in a jam packed project.

The project is available every Thursday 6-8.30pm. Sessions will allow participants to learn and/or develop in songwriting, rap, vocals, beat making and programming, production, keyboards, using Logic Pro software, guitar, music video creation and more. The project is open to young people with or without musical experience.

Sessions start July 25th 2024.

Young people will gain weekly music studio access supported by Beats Lab facilitators Annalise and Rudy. They will be supported in using the new purpose built youth music studio space and creating their own original music.

Participants will get to learn to use the studio confidently, write songs, make beats, play instruments and record. All levels of ability are welcome including people who’ve never done music or those who already write their own songs. All areas of musical interest or skills are welcome also eg beat making, vocalists or rappers, guitarists etc. The more skills and areas of interest the better!

The original songs produced will all be featured in original youth album which we will release online for young people to access and use as a starting point for their own musical portfolios and share. Young people will create, plan and shoot content and music videos to accompany the online release and learn how important the role of visuals and social media content is for musicians starting out in their careers.

Young people will co design a street art mural for the studio in collaboration with local street artist Ryan Hawaii. He will also be delivering a street art workshop where young people will create album artwork.

There will be 4 industry professionals visiting to give masterclasses. They will speak with young people about their first hand industry experiences, share tips and advice and give young people professional feedback on their music.

Finally there will be a live album launch party event in May 2025 where young people will have the opportunity to share their music and perform their songs live to an audience.
