Lady Gaga. Björk. Kate Bush. Annie Lennox. Goldfrapp. Ladyhawke. What have they got in common? They’re all women who smashed their way onto the electric music scene, and you can too!
Join world-class professional drummer and musician Cat Myers to learn all about the basics of electronic music-making in a friendly and welcoming environment. From synths to samples, loops to lyrics, she’ll guide you step-by-step towards your own personal compositions. All you need to take part is a laptop or tablet device and access to wi-fi.
Cat Myers is an accomplished session drummer, composer & drum tutor, in the past few years she’s mainly been touring the world with KT Tunstall & Mogwai. As a Roland Artist, Cat specialises in incorporating electronics & samples into drumming, attempting to push the boundaries of what she can play live. www.catmyers.com
