What sessions can include
Sessions are tailored to the participant's interests, goals and support needs, and may include:
  • Instrument learning, with beginner-friendly support and guided practice
  • Jamming and collaborative music-making to build confidence, connection and enjoyment
  • Songwriting through lyric writing, musical ideas, structure and creative development
  • Music production using simple recording, beat-making or basic studio processes
  • Creative exploration in a supportive environment that encourages self-expression and participation
Sessions can focus on one area or move across a few, depending on what is most useful and engaging for the participant.

Who are these sessions for
These sessions may suit adults who:

  • want to build confidence participating in music and creative activities
  • enjoy music and would benefit from structured, individual support
  • want to develop practical skills in playing, writing or making music
  • are looking for a supportive space to express themselves creatively
  • benefit from longer, hands-on sessions with time to settle in and engage
  • are working toward goals related to community participation, confidence, communication or independence
No previous music experience is required. Sessions can be adapted for different interests, experience levels and ways of engaging.
How sessions support NDIS goals
Supported Music Participation Sessions use music as a practical and engaging way to work toward goals such as:

  • increased social and community participation
  • confidence and capacity building
  • communication and self-expression
  • creative skill development
  • routine, engagement and independence
  • participation in meaningful, interest-based activities

The focus is not only on music skills, but on supported participation, personal growth and building confidence through creative engagement.

Location and delivery format
Sessions are offered as individual supports and can be delivered in a format that suits the participant's goals and circumstances.

Depending on availability and suitability, sessions may be offered:

  • in person
  • from a home, studio or community-based setting
  • in a structured one-on-one format
  • with a practical, hands-on approach tailored to the participant

Location and setup can be discussed before sessions begin to make sure the format is appropriate, accessible and supportive of the participant's goals.

Why 2-hour minimum sessions
A longer session allows time to:
  • arrive and settle in without feeling rushed
  • build comfort and connection
  • move beyond a quick lesson format into meaningful participation
  • explore ideas through playing, writing, listening and experimenting
  • support deeper engagement and more consistent progress
This makes sessions better suited to participants who benefit from supported, hands-on creative time rather than short, highly structured tuition blocks.

Session examples
Depending on the participant, a session might include:
  • learning chords or rhythms on an instrument
  • playing along with favourite songs
  • improvising or jamming together
  • writing lyrics or building a simple song
  • recording ideas and listening back
  • experimenting with beats, sounds or simple production tools
  • building confidence through regular creative practice

Who you'll be working with
Participants will work with Lisa, Craig or Angus, depending on availability and the participant's goals, musical interests and preferred style of support.

Each facilitator brings experience in music-making, performance and creative development, with sessions shaped around the participant's confidence, engagement and goals.

Lisa
Lisa is a Latin Grammy-winning musician, singer and songwriter with extensive experience in music production and performance. As a bassist, singer and live looping creative practitioner, Lisa brings a high level of musical experience to sessions while maintaining a grounded, supportive and participant-led approach. 

Craig
Craig is a singer-songwriter and guitarist with a supportive, creative approach to individual music sessions. He works with participants in a way that encourages confidence, expression and meaningful engagement through music.

Angus

Angus is a singer-songwriter, drummer and guitarist who brings a practical, encouraging approach to music sessions. His work supports participants to explore playing, jamming, songwriting and creative confidence in a hands-on way.


As a team, we offer support across instrument learning, songwriting, collaborative music-making and music production, with sessions tailored to each participant's needs and interests.

Pricing 
Sessions are charged at the applicable NDIS rate for the relevant support item. Any additional costs, such as travel or agreed session-related expenses, will be discussed in advance.

Private rates are also available on request.


Service Agreement
For regular supports, a service agreement will be provided before sessions begin. This outlines session arrangements, fees, cancellations, invoicing and any agreed support considerations.

This helps create a clear, consistent and supportive arrangement for participants, families and coordinators.
A supportive, participant-led approach

Sessions are shaped around the participant's interests, pace and goals. The aim is to create a supportive space where music can be a pathway to confidence, expression, skill-building and community participation.
