Reconnect Through Music

Thanks to Daniel Fitzgerald from RecRock for a another great music session yesterday. Our members once again had a great morning at Reconnect through Music, singing their favourite songs and having a go on the keyboard, and Matthew did a great version of Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash.

RecRock will be on Friday (12th May) rather than Wednesday next week, and will be held at Fleur De Lys Community Centre as part of our last Cookery session. Volunteers will be singing, dancing, and serving up hotdogs and burgers, so please book a space if you would like to join us

Music with RecRock

Our members blew the roof off at the most recent Reconnect through Music session with RecRock. We sang songs by Bob Marley, Elvis, The Proclaimers, and Neil Diamond, and Gethin, Natalie, Morgan, Matthew, Nick, Lisa, and John played drums along with their favourite songs, accompanied by Daniel from RecRock on the guitar.

It’s great to see everyone growing in confidence and making friends through the music group. Getting up and singing in front of people isn’t easy, but our members put on fantastic performances every week.

RecRock Concert

The free St David’s Day concert which featured musical performances from music wellbeing groups run by RecRock in Caerphilly County was a massive success, with a great turnout there to witness the brilliant musical performances.  Caerphilly People First members Sophie, Natalie, Morgan, Richard and Chris were among the singers at the White Rose Centre in New Tredegar, where songs by The Police, Elvis, George Ezra, Dusty Springfield, Elton John, Alicia Keys, The Beatles, and many more were performed.  A big well done to everyone who performed and attended (and sang along!), and thank you to Dan from RecRock who put the concert together.

Concert practice was in full swing this week, and everyone sounded great.  It was great to see some new people attend our Reconnect through Music session with Dan from RecRock, taking part in singing and playing instruments.  It can be very nerve-wracking to perform in front of people, but everyone did brilliantly.

The group will be taking part in the St David’s Day concert at the White Rose Centre in New Tredegar on 1st March at 1:30pm.  This is a music performance by various wellbeing groups in Caerphilly and is free to attend.  We hope to see you there!

Reconnect through Music

Another great session last week with our reconnect through music group, led by Dan from Recrock.  At the session we practiced for our St David’s concert which is happening on Wednesday 1st March at the White Rose centre in New Tredegar.  All are welcome to attend this event, which will consist of musical performances from Caerphilly People First members and individuals from other groups.

Thank you to everyone who attended yesterday’s music session with Dan from Reckrock, which was so much fun.  The group played instruments, had a karaoke session, and recorded a song. These sessions are a great way to build confidence, improve wellbeing, and make new friends. Massive well done to everyone who took part – you all sounded great.
