Guy Chambers has begun mentoring six teenagers from Redbridge and Hackney in London, giving them the use of his Primrose Hill studio, as well as sharing his musical expertise in a bid to help them to break into the music business and maybe even become top songwriters themselves.
Chambers said: "I'm hoping they'll be able to gain from my experience. If their track is any good I'll be able to play it to people. Hopefully, after doing this, they'll carry on [making music] and, maybe one day even get paid for doing it".
One of the teenagers, Djahmyne Stuart added: "I've never been in a studio like this before. I'm just used to having a computer and a keyboard. Being here makes me feel like I can achieve something. This is a big learning curve for me but I'm open to it. It's a different way of thinking. Something I've never experienced before so it's changing how I think".
