It was a very busy two days in the music department running the SongMakers workshop. This year, students were mentored by Joel Quartermain (ARIA award winning Eskimo Joe co-founder and producer), KLP (ARIA nominated performer, writer and producer) and Antonia Gauci (producer, engineer and writer).

Not only did the students learn a lot about working in the music industry, they also wrote and recorded their own original songs with help from their mentors. You can have a listen to the final songs here: https://soundcloud.com/don-college/sets/song-makers-2021
