The Cream Room is delighted to be hosting the masterclasses with Wes. While music production and recording facilities are now easily accessible and available, not everyone has the intuitive skill to make the best use of them. With this series of masterclasses we are offering budding artists, engineers and producers the chance to elevate their performance, helping them towards that potential record deal or job in the industry. Or If a record deal isn’t the immediate goal they will still leave with a phenomenal set of skills to help create a product and market their talents and skills themselves.

Sessions can be booked individually - or take the Season Ticket Option to attend all 3 sessions. To book your place, contact Martin on 01920 438926.
