The tutors from Tolbooth songwriting and band workshops Pump Up The Jam take you on a 7 part crash-course in writing your own music, everything from writing your first lyrics and chords, right through to recording your song and getting it online for others to hear!
Part 5, how to sing the words you’ve written. The melody can help tell the story, define the genre of the song, and will be the main thing that draws people in!
We’d love to see how you’re using the resources and lessons to make music at home. If you’ve used our videos and activities to write a song, learn a new instrument, make a playlist, or if they’ve inspired you musically in other ways, please tag us in any social media posts you’ve made sharing this content, or use the hashtag #tolboothworkshops
