I'm raising £8,000 for a community music project. Working in conjunction with local schools, community centers and the local council, the aim is to set up and develop a program, and give people in the surrounding area the opportunity to create and record music to a professional quality level for free, as well as continued support and mentorship to navigate the industry.

Having had many personal opportunities and successes through music myself, I am aiming to breathe new life in to the local area and give emerging artists, with an emphasis on young people, the first step towards having their own music recorded, produced and released. Not only giving would be artists the essential first step, but hopefully motivating and inspiring others, especially young artists and musicians in Suffolk.

The first step for a musician or singer can be daunting, so as a producer I will be on hand to guide and develop the process at no cost to them. My time and work will be free, the funding required is to upgrade current equipment and purchase new equipment to meet the needs of the artists.
