Cost of Living Crisis (Making Music Accessible) - Sharon Bill Music Matters Vlog



I’m serious about taking my part - here and now - in making music accessible to all! I don’t profess to be the best and I don’t profess to know it all, but what knowledge I have I want to share. I’m so grateful to those who helped me (and continue to do so), and I want to pass on the baton. Life has enough worries, lets try and share this journey together!
