Plymouth Music Zone's 'Musical Misfits' group performed in front of a live audience for the first time since 2019 and completely smashed it. Many of the band members who have joined since the pandemic have never performed with the band before.
The Musical Misfits are also the first PMZ group to perform a short livestream on our Facebook page. We were really excited to have interactions from people watching from home, particularly a member of the band who was unwell on the day and was able to be included. This opens up options for us with performing in the future and sharing what happens here in addition to pictures and recordings.
The musicians in the group have had many different experiences of music throughout their lives. Some have been professional working musicians, singers and educators. Others are taking up new instruments and skills altogether. What is universal, however is a shared passion for music and a supportive community in which to try out ideas together.
Here are some of the comments left for us at the end of the performance:
