A compilation album of songs written and recorded by secondary aged musicians from Cardinia Shire. The album will be the outcome of a 10 week mentorship program that takes students through the stages of songwriting and equips them with a specialised tool for self-expression. By providing this opportunity at no cost to the student or parent, participants will have an accessible pathway to recording and releasing their own original song with guidance from their mentor. the compilation album will be released digitally onto all streaming platforms allowing students to share their music with their friends, family and community.
