How Long Have You Been Singing in the Dark?
Join singer Debbie Armour (Burd Ellen) to sing together and share our musical memories. During this short workshop, we will explore the musical moments that resonate with us through time and build something new from the reverberations.
Debbie Armour is a singer and artist, working primarily with traditional song and materials. Broadly, her work is motivated by persistence, resonance and deep cultural roots. She is an experienced song leader and uses archive material to explore ideas of community and shared heritage – don’t miss this opportunity to work with an amazing artist!
Anne Robinson is a contemporary visual artist from Ayrshire, now based in London.
