Banding Together
Women jamming, learning new instruments, creating songs and rocking out.
Feel the nerves and do it anyway.
Bring your sound-creation device of choice, no matter how dusty it is or rusty you are - all instruments welcome - whatever you play or used to play or want to play
What it’s all about
-
✺
A safe, supportive, judgement-free zone for women to re-connect with our musical talents, overcome stage fright and just have fun making music.

Used to play the clarinet? Been strumming alone? Want to learn the drums? Really good at the triangle? Dust off that instrument and let’s make some music!

Any bandmate can suggest a song they love or bring something they’ve started writing, and we’ll work on it together with the aim of building a repertoire of jam-ready songs to share with the world

✺
All instruments welcome from voice and the usual pop/rock culprits to traditional cultural instruments and the weird and whacky
-
✺
What to bring: your instrument, iPad/phone to bring up chords and lyrics as needed, water bottle, an open mind, sheet music/chords/tab if you have it.

Banding Together is about women doing something for themselves. Babes in arms are always welcome. Most of the time kids will be welcome to come and play together in a nearby space, but they’re not invited to join in with us. The invite will let you know if there’s a space for kids or not, contact the host if in doubt.
