Costs to repair the music studio in Paisley have spiralled to £100,000 with an additional £50,000 needed to replace equipment.
Legendary musician Sir Rod Stewart has given his backing to a bid to restore a Paisley music studio gutted by a devastating fire.
“Since then we’ve been unable to offer our full journey approach. What we do is take in kids, teach them how to play, set them up in a band, and then put them on the stage, but we’ve had nowhere to do that since the fire,” explained Tommy. And in his bid to raise the profile of his campaign, he’s secured the backing of Maggie May singer Sir Rod Stewart.
Sir Rod is urging people to get behind the fundraiser, saying: “Music has the power to transform lives, and Loud n Proud has been a crucial force in nurturing talent and providing opportunities for young people. It is heartbreaking to witness such a setback, but I believe that, together, we can help them to rebuild and ensure that the music doesn’t stop.”
Following the fire, the charity was threatened with extinction, but the owner of the building Gary Kerr, a local businessman, gifted the premises to the charity in 2022.
