Can I bring any instrument?

Please do not bring a drum kit or digital piano. Percussion or a small keyboard (battery powered preferably) is fine. Happy to see any instrument as long as you can deliver the parts you've come to play, synths should have an appropriate sound for the song. Orchestral instruments are most welcome.

What skill level do I need to be to join?

If you can play along to the original song, then you can join the workshop, as long as your part fits the song it doesn't matter how simple it is. We can work out simplified parts for any instrument so join the discussion on Discord and Twitch to get comfortable with something, you can always advance it later.

Do I need my own instrument?

Yes, please bring your own instrument (except drum kit or digital piano) and preferably bring any cables you need to play. Venue provides mixer and PA.
