The people
Everyone we could find who makes music in the valley. If you're on it, it's yours to change. If you're not, add yourself.
The People's Studio — a community music organisation in the Nambucca Valley
Pop-ups
A place to try something musical
A pop-up removes the usual barriers — cost, confidence, and unfamiliar buildings. We set up in public, visible, everyday spaces, so that showing up takes nothing more than walking over.
- Instruments are there. You don't bring anything.
- Nobody auditions. Nobody performs.
- Free, and always will be.
- Stay five minutes or the whole afternoon.
The first pop-up
Saturday 5 December
Nambucca Heads, from the afternoon into the evening. The exact spot goes up as soon as it's locked in.
Musical Tools
A new set of musical tools is on its way
Every tool rebuilt from the ground up: a tuner, a whole studio with keys, pads and recording, chord and scale finders, ear training, a songbook and more. Free, on your own device, nothing uploaded. They open at the first pop-up.
People's Music
The people making music here
Musicians, bands, choirs, teachers, venues, radio and clubs from across the valley. Every entry belongs to the person on it: they say what goes on it.
Services
The teachers, repairers, sound and recording people, venues, radio and clubs that keep music going here.
Nature's Music
Half-hour recordings of places around the valley, left running while nobody's there. The first ones are being made now.
Classifieds
Put something up. It's your noticeboard.
Anyone can put something up and anyone can read it, with no account and no fees. The board opens at the first pop-up, and you can send yours in now.
What goes on it
Gear for sale, gigs, a drummer you're short of, lessons you'd like people to know about. Free to post, free to read, and we take no fee, no commission and no cut of anything sold.
Instrument Rebirth
Something gathering dust in a cupboard becomes somebody's first instrument. You donate, we take care of the rest.
