Welcome to the second series of punk music sessions for women over 50 in South Wales, funded by Wales Millennium Centre.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This workshop takes a slight swerve from the 'punk' element of this series for women over 50, but is aimed at introducing you to different types of percussion. Sallie Maclennan from the Samba group Barracwda will introduce you to many different percussive instruments and also discuss (and practice) how we can listen to each other as a group, and react and keep in time during live performances. This will be a fun and interactive session - open to all women over 50! No need to sign up, just turn up by 2pm.
---------------------------------------------------------------
The concept of 'Nana Punk' was created by Jude Price, who collaborated with WMC, The Cab and Efa Supertramp to create the first series of these workshops in Autumn 2024. The first series of workshops resulted in a band called The Nanaz, who's members will be participating in this Autumn's sessions and sharing their knowledge! The sessions are FREE and open to ALL women over the age of 50.
