SICK OF YOU!! - THE MUSIC VIDEO!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbMNUXppceI

Last November, we were joined by Katie Nicoll, and producers Ben and Ryan for the One Track Challenge, funded by Eilidh’s Trust where two groups each created a song in just 11 hours - writing, producing, mixing and mastering it all in one weekend!

Sick of You was one of the tracks created, and ever since, whenever the girls have been in the studio, we’ve talked about how cool it would be to make a music video for it. So, nearly a year later… we’ve finally done it!

The girls brought plenty of attitude, and we’re so excited to share the finished video with you!

We’ll be doing another One Track Challenge soon, and we can’t wait to see what songs our young people come up with this time!

At DD8 Music, we work with over 400 young people and deliver around 500 sessions every year.

From music lessons, workshops and youth clubs to music production, media creation, forming bands and playing live, we’re here to give young people opportunities, a safe space and somewhere they feel they belong.

Young people can get involved in our youth committee, have a say in what we do, volunteer, gain work experience and even experience the work that goes on behind the scenes at a music festival.

Bonfest is about so much more than one weekend. It’s about the young people, the opportunities and the community around them.

That’s why we’re so proud to see Bonfest nominated for the Sarah Nulty Community Impact Award at the Festival Insights and UK Festival Awards.

We’d love your support! Please vote for Bonfest Kirriemuir and share this post to help spread the word.

The festival might be one weekend, but the impact carries on all year.

Thank you to everyone who supports Bonfest and DD8 Music. We couldn’t do it without you. 💛
