A free, interactive music workshop for young people aged 15 to 25 will take place in Laverton on Saturday, July 20.
ARIA award-winning soul singer-songwriter Adrian Eagle and musical producer, artist and multi-instrumentalist Nikodimos will guide the Family Jams workshop.
Mr Eagle, who has extensive experience in the musical industry, said people with an interest in music are encouraged to participate.
“We’re going to be just an open invite to whoever wants to join, and we’ll be putting together a song-writing workshop to show people how to write a song from scratch and produce a song from scratch,” Mr Eagle said.
“It’s a great opportunity for me to be able to teach them face-to-face, you know, even if it’s just for a couple of hours. I think that they will benefit in some way for sure,” he said.
“We hope to inspire the next generation of musicians and give them a taste of what it takes to create music.
“I’ve been able to do, you know, song-writing workshops around the country and has been able to do it in Alice Springs for the kids up there and other parts of the map. But it’s really nice to be able to do this in Melbourne’s inner west.”
The workshop also features a live set from DJ BB Sanii, adding an extra layer of excitement to the day.
The workshop will be held at Woods Street Arts Space, Laverton, on Saturday, July 20, from noon to 3 pm.
