Exploring our sound with the Loop Station

Great end of term session with some of the members and Katrina O’Kane on her loop station! Looking forward to welcoming more women in to the next term, and to working with Adrian Potter from Tribarac Studios as we dedicate time to getting our sound ready for performance next year.

Another year at the West Cork Feelgood Festival

Both Acapellabella and Ballydehob Community Band will be joining me once more for the 5th year of my bringing an inclusive singing event into the festival, hosted by the festive environment of Levis Corner Bar, Ballydehob. This has to be one of my favourite events on my calendar! We create such a joyous and full, high energy sound…wit,h everyone in the room enjoying learning a few songs, with harmony parts, and then getting to sing it with loads of voices and a full band sound.

This year I’m getting even more excited as the band has been developing a horn/brass section; the percussion team has evolved bringing more depth to the rhythms; and we have a few new elements and new members in our sound. The pieces I’ve chosen are original songs and are high-energy, with lyrics to bring a message of support and community.

See you there! Everyone very welcome!

Katrina O’Kane is our first Guest Musician for this Autumn Term of the Vocal Performance Group!

Very excited to have the opportunity to work with Katrina…a very creative and talented musician and singer – songwriter based in Glengarriff, and we are both looking forward to creating some music to explore with the group. There are still places left, so if you are a woman who’s ready for a new experience in harmony singing through group coaching, get in touch to see if this might be for you!

Singing and Songwriting…in support of Gaza

This coming weekend I’m going to be out and about Singing and Songwriting with a focus on supporting Gaza, and supporting the messages and healing vibes of spreading Love and Peace.

I’m starting a new song writing project….” Songs For Gaza” and will be around during the Walk For Gaza this coming Saturday, gathering content ideas from anyone willing to share. If you’re coming along, please look out for me during the day..I’ll create a sign so you can spot me.
I would like this to be a collective process, so anyone wanting to continue being involved with singing or creating these can give me a shout at cazjeffreys@gmail.com or 083 1425599. Thanks and see you there.
I’m also bringing this focus into my Songwriting Hub Whats App group….if anyone wants to join me there.

Then on the Sunday I’ll be at the Schull Market alongside the Amnesty International group singing and leading beautiful harmony songs with the messages of Love and Peace.

All monies raised will be donated to Gaza.

Here’s the link for the Fundraising Walk for Gaza where you can donate through a Go Fund me campaign.
