National Learn To Play Day is offering free music instrument lessons to anyone who wants to take part across the UK.
A host of musicians and celebrities are supporting the event including Al Murray giving free drum lessons at Chappell of Bond Street, London, Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason appearing at Footes Music Store, London, and Harry Hill offering free ukulele lessons at JG Windows, Gateshead Metrocentre.
The UK's inaugural National Learn to Play Day in 2012 provided over 10,000 music lessons on guitar, piano, drums and a range of orchestral instruments and 2013 is set to exceed this figure with over seventy five shops nationwide taking part.
Teachers, demonstrators, and celebrities will all be helping making this a truly memorable day, plus there will be prizes, goody bags, discounts and technical support from musical instrument companies as varied as Yamaha, Peavey, Blackstar, Orange Amplification, Sound Technology and JHS.
