TEACHING
Teaching... songwriting sessions, one to one lessons in ukulele or guitar, group work (band)workshops... workshops for your festival\school\community group...
GLASGOW SONGWRITING FESTIVAL
I've been waiting for Glasgow to have it's own songwriting festival. In 2016 I realised that if I wanted one I might have to do it myself. Plans are afoot for a bigger festival in 2017. Keep your eyes on The Glasgow Songwriting Festival website.
