Community music workshops in Perth

Music's Better
Shared.

Inspiring young people to connect, create and find their voice through music.

Find Your People.
Find Your Sound.

Good Noise Project is a Perth-based social enterprise built around one idea: using music to help youth find their people. Music isn't something to sit back and listen to — played together, it becomes something you make, something you share, and something that connects you to whoever shares the room, from the stage to the crowd.

These programs exist to give young people that experience: the chance to create, collaborate and connect through a range of songwriting and music workshops, without the pressure of a stage or a standard to meet. We don't provide traditional music lessons — we believe in learning by doing. And while there's something genuinely therapeutic in what happens here, we're not a professional therapy practice.

Our next one is a school holiday music camp in North Perth this Spring — two days of writing, jamming and performing an original song together.

Programs

There's a Stage for Every Age.

From high schoolers writing their first song to dads picking up a guitar again — we hope to cater to every aged muso.

Here to Play, Not to Prove.

Every participant of a Good Noise Project workshop is treated the same, regardless of skill, background, or how long they've been playing. No judgement. No hierarchy. And no pressure to share before you're ready.

No Judgement

We embrace mistakes — that's where the good stuff comes from.

No Hierarchy

Nobody's here to perform, prove themselves, or hit a benchmark.

No Pressure

Share when you're ready — not a moment before.
