We are recruiting for Humbersound Groove Crew for 2009 once again, if you know anyone please pass on the information below to anyone between 12 to 20 year olds……one or two years either way not a prolem!

Music ~ Singing ~ Filming ~ Interviewing ~ Laughing and much more……..

Humbersound are looking for more young people to join their crew and help manage and develop the Heritage "Groove Crew" Project . This will involve a series of music, singing, filming and personal skills workshops leading up to the 2009 Hull Maritime Festival (Shanty Festival). This project will investigate the musical heritage that links Hull to the sea and the cultural heritage that surrounds the city. An education package will be developed to deliver to a wider audience for future years.

These will take place predominantly at Wilberforce House which is situated in the Museum Quarter in Hull. Heritage Groove Crew will be researching into local maritime history and heritage by interviewing people and capturing their memories and stories with sound and film recording.

The project is funded by Heritage Lottery Young Routes and we would like to hear from anyone 12 to 20. If you are interested, or you know anyone who maybe, and would like further information please contact either:

Hi,Jennie,
Are they interested in local sea songs? You'll find some on the Yorkshire Garland website.

A visit to the Maritime Museum would give them lots of info/ideas and would probably be a good place for interviewing , since many people visiting have family members who were linked to the fishing industry in the past.

The whale sounds in the whaling room would make excellent background music for a song!

I have some songs about whaling in Hull that I wrote (some of my forebears were Hull whalers). I haven't recorded these yet, but I can email you tyhe words if you like . Hopefully I'll be recording them in the near future.

you could make posters telling people about it, and put them in Hull College, The Warren and BBC Centre.They do music and that at the warren for 15-2 year olds.

Or you could ask les to make you a poster, he's really good at that type of stuff and he was The Poster Bloke at hull Council.
