| Name: John Frost |
| Course: Creative Music Technology
degree |
| Interesting Fact: I’m
the lead vocalist in the College’s official band M*101 |
I decided to do the Creative Music
Technology course at High Melton because it fits in so well with my
life. Just like the rest of the band, music is my life. I
leave, breathe and sleep music.
I did my A Levels there and now I’m doing my
degree there so I’ve become quite attached to High Melton now.
We’ve got all the latest equipment here so we can’t ask for much
more. The campus is the perfect place for a musician because it’s
so peaceful. The students up here are great too.
Studying can become quite stressful but when
it’s about something you love, it doesn’t seem that bad. I can get
away from my studies by gigging around the region with my bandmates
or by working – I have a job in a sex shop (or adult entertainment
store).
Last month, we (the band) were given the title
of ‘official College band’ which was very cool. We were given cash
for studio time so hopefully we can raise our profile and make it
big. We played at the Hub this month in front of hundreds of people
so we think we are building a bit of a following.
