Weekend Workshop Roundup

On the weekend, we got to present some awesome workshops in conjunction with Side By Side Weekend! We covered the basics of pedalboards, as well as the basics of distributing music digitally.

This was a very special event and we were super grateful to be able to give away some amazing prizes from Earthquaker Devices, Long & McQuade, and Ernie Ball!

When I (Hannah) was first learning about music I was always really intimidated by pedals and music industry lingo, so I was pretty excited to get to work on these. The crowd was great and it was a very relaxed, open vibe! Thanks to everyone who came out and hopefully we can run these again!

Incase you missed it, we’ve made the slideshows available to anyone who wants to check them out.

*And remember, what we say is just one way of doing things. If you don’t want to do any of these things thats up to you! Your music project is yours and don’t ever let anyone tell you different!
