Debatable Productions’ vision, since its foundation, has been to provide a creative home for talented young professionals 16-25 years old.

We provide a creative, professional environment for young talent to flourish.

I believe that music reaches the core of our being and can play a vital role in nourishing hope, love and strength, particularly when performed at an extremely high artistic level and in a friendly, relaxed setting.
