Mind Your Music and Coronavirus
In 2020, we had to change the way we met, made music, performed, and stayed in touch and supportive as a group. For most of the year, we had to move everything online. During the summer months, when restrictions were eased, we met outdoors and played music together - socially distanced, of course - in Bristol's parks. Since then we have been wholly online.
For as long as physical meetings remain difficult because of the coronavirus emergency in 2021, Mind Your Music will continue to run a programme of online activities, workshops, rehearsals and productions serviced by our WhatsApp group and Zoom meetings. To know more about these activities, please contact Sarah or Elliot Hall on 079361 82638.

Music for mental wellbeing
Formed in 2003 by singer-songwriter Elliot Hall, Mind Your Music is a friendly, supportive group who meet to make, create, and perform music together, in a safe, inclusive, non-judgemental environment.

During restrictions, we are 'meeting' via Zoom, every Monday afternoon for themed musical sessions involving online karaoke, musical discussion and quizzes, open mics and occasional even dressing up. We have set up a Whatsapp group so that people have the opportunity to reach out if they want to, or just to feel that there are other people out there. We have had an online christmas party, and our poetry book launch (see latest news)
