We LOVED this project earlier in the year. Back in Selby Abbey with the fantastic young people of Selby singing their hearts out performing songs they’d written. #musiceduk #primaryrocks #sing

This was such a great project to be involved in! Listening to my resources come to life and young people becoming mini oral historians with their families 🥰 plus the songs are super catchy!

Thank you so much for working with us.

Brilliant to be back in a school today with kids writing a song! It’s been a long old road but we’re back up and running. Thanks to @YvetteTurnbull and the team for keeping the faith! If you want to book songwriting sessions for your school or hub, get in touch!

[Performing Arts etc @P_A_etc]

Today for the first time since before the pandemic @SamDunkleyMusic was in a school, writing a song with brilliant kids! It was a great day and we’re blown away by the work of @SelbyCP on our @VisitHeartYorks @SelbyDC @HistoricEngland funded project with @selby_abbey!

Last chance to catch me in @buxtonfringe this year at @underthefringe today. 5:30 show! See you there.

Nice little private gig in Northamptonshire today! Still time to get tickets for my finals @buxtonfringe gig of the year on 25 July from the @underthefringe website.
Small steps, but it’s great to be out and singing again.

We’re grateful for the @ace_national and @DCMS #CultureRecoveryFund which offered us support in the second round. It means we’re still #HereForCulture! We feel incredibly fortunate to have benefited from this scheme.
