Our final masterclass of the Spring Term was a rhythm section special, with Alessi Rose’s drummer Stella Alkan and bassist Digby Lovatt joining us to play songs and share their experiences of working as session musicians. It was a special moment to welcome Stella back to The Rhythm Studio, the place where she started her musical journey, studying drums with Chris from the age of 8 to 18 and meeting her bandmates from Stepbrother. Thank you so much to Digby and Stella for an inspirational afternoon!

Spring Band Gigs 2026! Fantastic to be back at The Distillers with our line up of incredible bands, our students and tutors have worked very hard this term to get ready to showcase their talents!

RSF partners with Chelsea & Westminster Health Charity (CW+) and Imperial Health Charity to deliver inclusive musical projects on paediatric wards. Weekly 2-hour sessions combine group workshops in play spaces with individual bedside visits for children unable to join groups. These activities create a positive, shared experience that builds community on the wards, supports emotional wellbeing, and creates a happier, calmer environment for young patients and their families.
