THE GROUP
We are Mu3aC pronounced MUZAK
​
We are a u3a group bought together by our love of Rock and Blues music, which we attempt to play and that love playing together.
Our music is probably leaning mostly towards the Blues, but with Rock and Roll and Rock and has developed into an eclectic mix.
​
The u3a are a friendly organisation offering a range of informal groups to study, follow our hobbies and interests, and to enjoy the companionship of others with similar objectives. It's a good way to meet people and make new friends.
Costs are minimal because our activities are organised by members, who share their skills and expertise. There are numerous different study, creative or leisure interest groups meeting regularly. A monthly meeting is held in the Woodmancote Village Hall in the afternoon of the 3rd Monday of the month at which a guest speaker gives a talk of general interest.
