Announcing Next Session's Theme: David Bowie

That's right, it's time to put on your red shoes and dance the blues, because starting Monday, February 22nd, we're taking on Mr. Ziggy Stardust in all his glam-rock glory. Although perhaps best known for his wildly inventive stage characters and costumes, Bowie is widely regarded as an innovator who has influenced subsequent generations of musicians (from Iggy Pop and the New York Dolls to Nine Inch Nails, Morrissey and The Cure) during his five decades in popular music, and is known for his distinctive voice and the intellectual depth of his work. Registration is open now - click here for details.
