What we do

At NACN Singing Academy we provide an opportunity for young singer that have a talent in singing but maybe face barriers that prevent them from taking forward steps towards a more professional career.

For many, the high end cost of studio recording time is just one of the many problems young people face when trying to make it.

At our Singing Academy we audition each member to see if they have what it takes to be on a certain level of skill and also to see if they have the right positive attitude that we require within our group.

Our members benefit from a good support structure and the ability to record in the NACN Coole Studio without the high end fees.

Zoe

Young Leader Singing Academy

I am 17 years old. I have been coming to NACN for over 5 years now. Part of my role is to manage each of the classes with one of the other young leaders. The Academy runs every Thursday night but sometimes if we are working on our Personal Artists Profiles we have to come in more. My plans for the group is to keep developing and keep growing so we can create performances that we can then charge as part of a social enterprise to self sustain the running of the group.

Brooke

Senior Support of Singing Academy

I am 19 years of age. As a senior youth member I support the young youth leaders within the Singing Academy which is the best youth provision where young talent can come and express themselves. One of my most memorable experiences is when we produced a video highlighting the dangers of drugs that went viral. This allowed us to see that we can achieve so much from within our community.
