AboutMoseley Misfits is a community music group based in Moseley, Birmingham for adults who play any instrument. We welcome traditional instruments like violins, clarinets and trumpets alongside didgeridoos, electric guitars and maracas. Whatever you play, you can join!
We rehearse weekly on Tuesday evenings (term time only) from 7-8.30pm at The Moseley Exchange and aim to provide a place for amateur musicians to connect with each other, and play a variety of repertoire including arrangements of well-known pop songs and film scores alongside folk-tunes taught by ear and collectively written pieces from the group. There is no minimum standard to join and we don't do auditions. As long as you have an instrument that you can bring to the rehearsal you are very welcome! Moseley Misfits is led by experienced community musicians Reuben Penny, Rob Jones and Emily Wright. For more information just email us at moseleymisfits@gmail.com.
