Hi,


My little one is four weeks old, and my husband back to work next week, and I'm trying to figure out a plan for maternity leave life! There seems to be a brilliant amount of groups locally, and I've really enjoyed the things I've tried so far, and met some lovely mums. However, I was wondering if anyone locally would be up for doing some (grown up, rather than kids) music making during the daytimes? My daughter seems to happily sleep through me bashing about on the cello, and I've just about enough space (and accommodating neighbours!) to host some music making at mine in Nunhead.


Genre wise, I'm quite happy to try anything, just keen to keep up some creative stuff! I do a bit of music teaching/workshop leading for kids, and in my day job administrate orchestral music outreach projects, so would like to keep my hand in! I'm a cellist, and also dabble a bit on piano, and could happily do classical stuff (and have a fair stack of quartet music/duets), folk or indie pop/rock, or just some improv or songwriting, all of course fuelled by regular tea and biscuits and breaks to tend to small people.


Be great to hear if anyone might be interested x

Might not be quite what you're looking for, but have you seen Hummy Mummies advertised? It's a choir rather than band, but might be worth a peek - we sing proper adult songs (there's even videos on YouTube - apologies if you see the belly flashing toddler!)

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
