  1. None of us doing the course have music teaching qualifications, but I have years of experience teaching guitar to children! I have a degree, which isn't really related. I didn't know I'd put on the website that I have qualifications... I shall check this out right now.

    A lot of good buzz around these at the moment! Tell your friends/kids if you think they'd enjoy the course, it's going to be awesome fun.

    Edit: I see what I did! I have a Teaching English as a Foreign Language qualification, and I have also done a lot of training in my role with Apple in teaching - it doesn't really apply to music specifically but is relevant I think. I've taken it off the website so as not to be misleading.

  2. I'm delighted to announce that I will be running 2 Song Writing Schools this summer in Inverurie and Oldmeldrum. Throughout the 4 week courses in July we will compare past classics, modern hits and songs that you love yourself by exploring similarities in structure and melody, as well as having a lot of fun along the way by writing a song collectively. The courses cost 199 for 4 weeks and run on 2 hours on 2 days of the week.

    I will be joined by several of Aberdeen and Scotland's best unsigned musicians including Steven Milne, Jonathan Carr and Davy Shanks amongst others. Alongside experienced producers and radio DJs we will discuss song writing by analysing The Beatles, Rihanna and even Rebecca Black and help develop the skills of every student that attends the course, ultimately helping every student to write and perform their own song. We will also record this performance so that they can take away their new creation on a CD and enjoy it forever more.

    The courses are open to everyone above the age of 13 and spaces are limited so please book or pass on information nice and fast to avoid disappointment. I also plan to have at least 1 course organised for late summer if possible, as well as offering private tuition.

    I don't claim to be able to teach you to write a song as the talent is inherent, I simply want to help get the absolute most out of you as a musician so you can enjoy writing and performing your own songs as much as I do. It's also a lot of fun.

    You can book a place or get more information by emailing me at josephbull@me.com or phoning 07815 938555

  4. there's no gig footage....

    ooooooh actually you must mean the dark shots with all the neon light things, which I filmed in a house somewhere. It's interesting you think it's a gig actually, it was at a party and I really like how you can't really work out what is going on and all you see are little lights.

    I actually really like those shots for all the bright lights - it gives a lot of contrast between bits. It also acts as a 'colouring in' part for the storyboard, rather than drawing what I was writing about. In my head it makes a lot of sense, but it might be 'film degree' sense and not actually real-life sense. I dunno.

    Anyway, thanks for watching it, I think you'll all think i'm talking pish
