On Friday night, one of The Lewis Project founders, Michele, had the pleasure of catching up with our wonderful patron Derek Nash Music at his Wonder of Stevie gig at The Stag Sevenoaks, and what a fantastic evening it was! ๐ŸŽถ

Derek very kindly gave The Lewis Project a shout-out on stage, which meant so much to us. His continued support is incredibly appreciated.

It was a brilliant night all round, a full house, a great atmosphere, and amazing music. Huge thanks again to Derek for his generosity and ongoing encouragement of the charity ๐Ÿ’™

Moments like these remind us how powerful community support really is.

We are incredibly proud to announce that Derek Nash Music, British Jazz Award-winning bandleader, composer, arranger, producer and engineer, has become a patron of The Lewis Project, and we couldnโ€™t be happier!

Derek is one of the UKโ€™s most respected and in-demand jazz musicians and he lived in the Sevenoaks area for many years, still regularly performing locally. Earlier this year, he visited us and played alongside our young saxophonist Robbie Ayers (seen picture with Derek), joining in on several original songs by our members. His warmth, generosity and energy brought smiles all round and we knew instantly he was the right person to support our work.

We asked him to be our patron that same night and just a few weeks later, he came back with a resounding yes. Welcome to the family, Derek!

๐ŸŽถ The Lewis Project, based in Sevenoaks, supports young musicians aged 16+ by promoting mental wellbeing through music creation, collaboration and community.

๐ŸŽท We currently have 2 free spaces available, as two of our musicians have recently moved on to university.

๐Ÿ“ We meet every Monday, 5.30pmโ€“9.30pm at HITB The Stag Theatre, Sevenoaks

We can't believe that it was this time 3 weeks ago that The Lewis Project took to the stage at Local & Live at the Calverley Grounds Tunbridge Wells!
Hereโ€™s a few photos and a video snippet depicting one of a number of a great performances from the music festival.
We had wonderful feed back from those who attended and The Lewis Project artists and musicians rocked the place as usual!
Thank you to all of those who came out to enjoy the sunshine and support us, we hope that you enjoyed the day as much as we did.
And an extra special thank you Paul Dunton, the organiser of Local & Live and his team who has supported us for the second year running.

Weโ€™re delighted to share this wonderful announcement article from our generous sponsors Rotosound Music Strings - https://www.contactmusic.com/story/467/3374768/rotosound-announces-sponsorship-deal-with-music-therapy-charity-the-lewis-project

This meaningful collaboration means so much to us. Not only do our members have the essential gear they need to continue creating and expressing themselves through music, but they also gain a connection to a legacy of musical excellence, as Rotosound strings have powered sounds from Pink Floyd, Queen, Guns Nโ€™ Roses, Nirvana, and beyond!

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Rotosound, for believing in the power of music therapy and for helping our musicians continue their journey with bright strings and brighter spirits.
