Paisley singer/songwriter Michael Cassidy has been exploring Paisley’s incredible history of songwriting and its poetic legacy as the starting point for a series of songwriting and music workshops with local young people.
Join Michael and special guests to be announced for a night of new music and a fresh chapter in Paisley’s illustrious songbook.
We also have some very special workshops in the arts centre as part of the Paisley in Song event. All workshops are free of charge – however, a £4 (& booking fee) refundable deposit will be charged to secure your place. This will be refunded when you arrive at the event.
