Who will be teaching the project?
Fran Lobo
Fran Lobo is a singer, songwriter, producer, choral composer and sound artist from London. Her work is centred around the importance of having a voice and enabling others to do the same through her creative and facilitation work. Her work has been shown at the V&A, Southbank Centre and Somerset House and has been critically acclaimed by publications such as DAZED, i-D and The Guardian.
‘FRAN LOBO is one of a kind. The London-based singer songwriter is currently carving out a niche of her own, creating music that all at once manages to be ethereal, empowering, and perfect for a sing-along, and conjuring up comparisons to artists as diverse as PJ Harvey, Grimes and Rage Against the Machine’, DAZED
James Yarde
As a producer, musician and songwriter, James Yarde’s influences are many and include reggae, Afro-beat and jazz, while his roots lie firmly in soul, hip hop and R&B genres. Recent collaborations on and off stage have included Ty, The Olatuja Project and The WiseChildren, of which he is at the helm.
