Year 8 - research task.

As you are well aware I am not teaching today so here is your task for the period.

Investigate the life and times of an Australian musical Artist:
  1. Name, Age, Style of music/Bands they play in.
  2. Create a time line of their achievements including awards, ARIAs etc.
  3. Write a review of one of their songs that you know. make sure you include your opinion of the song.
If you get all that done..... Research one of following topics; The development of
  • the "Stratocaster Guitar"
  • Les Paul
  • Leo Fender
  • Gibson Guitars
  • The history of the electric Guitar
  • guitar amplifiers
  • Research the latest technology in guitars today - USB guitar, Robot tuning, Self Tuning, "Variax" guitars.
  • What inovations will come in the future for guitars/guitarists?
If you get all that done you are a master of useless guitar based knowledge :-)
