upbeat academy
Newton-Le-Willows
Upbeat Academy Foundation was founded in late-2012 in memoriam of two lost
friends — Winter Circle Productions’ Jeff Milne (26) and MCP Presents’ Patrick
Edwards (31) — seeking a dual purpose of immortalizing their memory and serving
the community. Each young man was a stable in his local community’s music
culture boasting an infectious creativity and positivity that motivated dozens
of friends to find their passion. Over the years, Upbeat Academy has been
grateful for the ability to honor Jeff and Patrick’s legacy and families by
empowering young people through the power of modern music education.
