Are you a young musician aged 13-18 yrs? Are you a sing-songwriter or in a band? Music Generation Mayo is offering a great opportunity for you to work with professional touring and recording band ‘21 OUTS’ at the Youth Music Hub situated in the Ballina Arts Centre. The Hub was established by Music Generation Mayo in 2013 to promote and encourage youth music based activities and performances for young people. Resources available include a dedicated rehearsal space, fully kitted out with professional instruments and equipment with regular music workshops and advice clinics programmed on a continuing basis.

They will share their growing knowledge of the music industry with aspiring young musicians, looking at topics such as how to record, release and promote yourself as an artist and get your music out there. Having shared the stage with Irish bands such as Jape, Republic of Loose and The Coronas, ‘21 OUTS' have been described as ‘one of the best lives bands in Ireland’, continually honing craft through national and international performances, having recently returned from a tour of Germany, Holland the U.K.
This is a great opportunity for young musicians to engage with the band who will guide and advise them over the course of the three days in a variety of topics and encourage them in developing their own performance skills with access to rehearsal rooms and the main theatre stage at the Ballina Arts Centre.
