“One Day Like This” Lockdown Cover Project

Back in March 2021, towards the end of the second lockdown, 4 secondary schools started working on recording a very special song cover of “One Day Like This” by Elbow.

“Lockdown Cover” is a celebration of the musical achievements of children from these schools and provides a snapshot into the daily work of music departments, music teachers and tutors.  It was a fantastic opportunity to collaborate with other young musicians and create a piece of music with others, all be it remotely, as a positive outcome of the difficult time we were in.  We are very excited to have created this video with the help of Dave Mills from “Media Mania” who produced the sound and visuals for this project to create this multi-screen video.


A big thank you goes to Dan Sanford-Casey from Lyng Hall, Andrew Johnson from Coundon Court, Jo Sharkey from Finham Park and Rebecca Leavy from Barr’s Hill School for all their hard work in capturing their musicians so brilliantly showing what they can do.  Also to Dave Mills and team from Media Mania for spending a huge amount of time in making all these different videos look and sound amazing!

We hope you enjoy.
