On today's episode, we are focused on something different - an initiative first started in February 2019, called ‘Me & My Music' ‘Me & My Music' brings together Musicians and Students in secondary schools across the countryThe workshop series teaches students the fundamentals of songwriting and allows them to create an original composition over the course of a school day.They also get the chance to meet a professional songwriter and learn more about the music industry and their creative process.In recent months, songwriter and educator Luan Parle has been hosting these workshops and I caught up with her (and her special guests) in a couple of schools to find out more.So, over the course of this episode you will be hearing from Luan and the music students at St. David's in Greystones, we meet the Wicklow singer-songwriter Anna-Mieke, we speak with the students at Loreto school in Dalkey, and also hear from musician Ronan Kealy, better known to you and I as Junior Brother.0:00 - Danny Carroll intro link1:30 - Luan & St. David's Class writing a song8:30 - Anna Mieke interview and performance(featured songs Seraphim, Warped Window) https://annamieke.bandcamp.com/music18:40 - Junior Brother Interview and performance(featured songs Good Friday, Hungover At Mass) https://juniorbrother.bandcamp.com/music22:15 - Students at Loreto Dalkey23:20 - Niamh Penston, teacher at Loreto Dalkey
