Music or Lose It

Do you want to learn how to DJ or make music using a laptop?

Music or Lose It is a new urban music project taking place in community centres across Burnley. If you’re aged 13 – 25, come along to learn from professional musicians and have a go at a range of digital music making skills. This project is about embracing diversity, expressing yourself and celebrating urban culture. Whether you’re into rap, hip-hop, R&B or something else, this project is for you.

The project will be led by professional artists and musicians Leon Akbar, Beki Hughes and Joe Rainbird.

               

The project is free to take part in and you don’t need any experience of music making to take part.

At the end of the project there will be an opportunity to get involved in organising an urban music event in Burnley town centre.

The project will start at Gannow Community Centre (Adamson St, Burnley BB12 6RB) with sessions taking place on Wednesday nights between October and December.
