Join multi-instrumentalist and producer Tom Oakes for a practical workshop on recording and releasing your music, from initial concept to final release.
This workshop will guide you through each stage of the process, highlighting where you can save money, where it pays to invest, and how to avoid common pitfalls. Tom will share insightful and helpful tips, and examples of what works (and what doesn’t), helping you navigate your own recording project with greater confidence and clarity.
----------
2019 Scots Trad Awards ‘Musician of the Year’ nominee Tom Oakes is one of the UK’s top flautists and multi-instrumentalists, as well as a sound designer, composer, producer, educator and label owner.
Tom is known widely for his work with Shetland fiddler Ross Couper, genre-bending pan-Finnish act ‘The Auvo Quartet’, Scottish power trio ‘OBT’, and a new project with Scottish multi-instrumentalist Ali Hutton and award-winning London-Irish fiddler Matt Tighe, as well as his increasing profile as a solo performer.
His album Water Street (2022) received global airplay and was longlisted for the 2022 MG ALBA Scots Trad Music Awards, while his solo show The Hearth premiered at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe and was shortlisted for ‘Best New Work’ at the 2023 awards.
