Rock & Pop Music Enrichment

“The Rock and Pop Group brought us together and introduced us to playing as a band and writing tunes. This has allowed us to grow as a band and as songwriters, helping us establish a great initial fan base to build on after we leave college. The Group also facilitated all our rehearsals, record several demo tracks in the studio – a massive bonus for us in terms of developing our mixing and producing skills”. – Patrick Cussack (Drummer/Percussionist)
