Tonic Rider Coordinator, Jeordie Shenton, recently provided a workshop for the latest cohort of the Tune Up Project, in Ipswich.
On Thursday 7th March, Tonic Rider provided a workshop on mental health in the music industry for around 10 young people attending the Tune Up Project. The project is located and run by The Smokehouse in Ipswich, offering 16-25 year olds a 10-week live music events course teaching skills in production, programming, marketing and event management.
As part of the workshop led by Caitlin Whittaker and Helen Dawson, the young people identified some of the stressors associated with organising a gig and learnt grounding techniques to address these. It was a fantastic workshop and the second time Tonic Rider has worked with the Tune Up Project.
This cohort are organising for Friday 17th May 2024 (7:30pm doors) at St Stephen's Church, Ipswich, headlined by AfterDrive + support.
