Springbrook Middle School 6th and 8th grade choir students had the privilege of working with Peter Bishop and his team from Above Pete's Garage for 3 days of song-writing and recording sessions during Mrs. Force's choir class last week. Students brainstormed song themes, created a title, hook, chorus, and bridge, then built and recorded beat loops, vocals and other instrumentation for their songs. This opportunity was made possible by a grant from the Adrian Schools Educational Foundation. Thank you to ASEF and Above Pete's Garage! It was an awesome experience!!
