Music Workshop in Dalston

Learn beautiful tunes and unravel the technical aspects of music by exploring a variety of arrangements. Limited spots available.

What to expect

A supportive space for folks to grow musically. Welcoming music enthusiasts of varying levels, this lovely get-together is a great remedy for those Monday blues. You may sing and/ or play any acoustic instrument—whether you're just beginning to learn or already know a few tunes. Gentle guidance may be offered occasionally.

Work on things such as

• figuring out a favourite tune—finding the best keys for your current vocal range and/ or instrument, as well as other technical details such as meter, groove, phrasing, etc.
• preparing a folk song for a future Flotsam Sessions workshop
• learning various scale systems

Before the workshop

In preparation for the day, please think of a tune you’d like us to figure out and sing/ play together. If you’re not able to print the lyrics, send an email and we’ll sort them out for you.

First-timers

The studio can be a bit difficult to find, on your own. A short meet-up will be held for your convenience at the Crown & Castle, just outside Dalston Junction station. Check in with your host at the pub around 6:30PM and no later than 6:45PM.

Free Spot

For folks who have attended previously—free spot available, for when you can’t afford the fee.
