Former Exminster pupil, Ozzie Parker, returned to school today to hold a jamming session with budding drummer, Brandon.  The boys had an hour of jamming together, with Brandon learning how to work together musically and being inspired by Ozzie's musical journey.

Ozzie attended Exminster Primary and was the first ever winner of the Helen Foundation award.  Ozzie then progressed to Dawlish Community College, winning the award again at the end of KS3.  Ozzie progressed onto Exeter College to study music and is now off to Leeds Conservatoire in September, the country's leading university for music.  Ozzie cuurently works with a country pop singer, Clara Bond, is part of a band named 'Jonah hitchings and the Superband' and has had 2 BBC introducing sessions.  Tune in for Ozzie's next live session on BBC Devon on 30 July. 

Thank you for your time today Ozzie and for inspiring young musicians.  The very best of luck for September.
