A multi-instrumentalist, Aine enjoys teaching both adults and children and has worked as a choral instructor in schools for many years.

A note from Áine…”I will facilitate a songwriting workshop for teenagers. There is no music experience necessary however, those who play portable instruments can bring them along. I will use my keyboard and a whiteboard to brainstorm lyrical ideas. We will explore songwriting techniques in the first half of the workshop and then break into small groups to write our own songs.”
