Editor Notes:
Volume Control is a monthly music event, organised and driven by young people. Volume Control is aimed at the 14-18 group and allows young performers and audience members to enjoy live, original music. Along the way, the Volume Control team will learn about promotions, marketing, media relations, poster design, stage production, event management and project financing. Based in the Oh Yeah music centre, this project equips a new generation with the skill sets to make their own mark on arts, business and music culture.
BBC Blast is the BBC’s network of creative teenagers. It provides access to mentors both online and in free events and workshops across the UK.
