Carousel: Open Fund for Organisations
Carousel presents: FairGround // Gig Buddies Tour 2022
Carousel nurtures and celebrates learning disabled talent. Our approach facilitates people to create art true to their own voice. Having worked in learning disabled music for over twenty years, Carousel is well placed to promote the variety and unique aspects of the learning disabled music scene in a faithful and diligent way.
2022 will see Carousel’s music programme, FairGround, work with a roster of exciting, diverse and established musicians including Dima Zouchinski, Beat Express, The Black Bawlerz and f.witch to undertake a six-date UK tour. The tour will be promoted in partnership with Gig Buddies, an organisation that pairs learning disabled music fans with volunteers so they can attend events. The Fairground Tour will visit Gig Buddies franchise projects based around the UK, helping learning disabled artists and audiences to engage in local music scenes around the country. Tour dates to be confirmed in July 2022.
