This project will support 40 underserved young people in a 12-week intensive programme of creative learning, mentoring and skills development in lyric writing, music and video production, broadcasting, performing, singing, rapping, beatboxing, live-looping and spoken word.
The programme will be enhanced by visiting inspiring artists from across the UK that focus on identity and storytelling.
We will encourage and support them to share their work through releasing EPs, social media channels/platforms, radio broadcasts, studio audiences and public performances..

PHAB TV
PHAB TV was created as part of the This Is Us project. We commissioned the wonderful Doorstep Arts to work alongside us and support PHAB’s amazing young people, develop their acting skills and bring their awesome ideas about life as a young person in Torbay to life.
To celebrate the great success of the project, we held a red carpet event-the ‘World Premier’ of PHAB TV at Sound Communities. It was a fantastic excuse to put on our glad rags, order in a buffet, watch the first screening and dance the night away at the after show party.
After the final scene, there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.
