I've been very quiet lately, but please don't think you've been forgotten! The dreaded lurgy got the better of me, but I'm finally back and fighting fit! If you have sent messages, please be assured I will be getting to you very soon and thank you for your patience and understanding ❤️ On the bright side, I'm just in time to announce our featured artist this weekend.

Danni B, who leads the Prestwich Community Choir, will be entertaining us tomorrow afternoon Sunday 9th November, from 11am to 4pm, in a friendly, relaxed open air venue at the Longfield Centre in Prestwich. Danni and the choir will be starting the entertainment, followed by her solo set including some of her own original songs! There's also a Makers' Market being held with a long list of vendors so there is definitely something for everyone. We look forward to seeing you there!

Hope you all had a great Halloween night and we'd like to extend our thanks to Peter Young and all at The Butchers Arms, Mossley for a fabulous night. As predicted, he put on a spectacular performance as Meat Loaf and we can't wait to show you his video.

The music continues tonight at The Egerton Arms Salford with the wonderful Danny Hindmarsh. I've known Dan quite some time now, and I can guarantee he will pull off a flawless set of all your acoustic favourites. We can't wait to see you there! ❤️

While we're eagerly waiting for our first gig, It seems like a good time to announce our second gig we'll be attending this Halloween weekend. We'll be at The Egerton Arms Salford to watch the fantastic talent that is Danny Hindmarsh on Saturday, 1st November from 9pm.

I have had the pleasure of seeing him perform many times, and (don't tell anyone) but one of my inspirations for starting the page. A very talented musician, singer and all-round great performer. He never disappoints and we look forward to seeing you there.

Have a happy and safe Halloween everyone ❤️

I promise this will be our last bragging post, but we did hit a milestone today that we feel needs a little celebration! We've been growing steadily since setting up our page in late July, but our latest video of Park 56 not only has had a fantastic viewership of almost 1.3 thousand in the first 24 hours on Facebook, but it was also our first video on TikTok that reached both 1 thousand views and over 100 likes!

We couldn't be happier for the band, as we feel it reflects how hard they have worked and their clear talent. It also means further exposure for all the artists we cover, which is exactly our aim! We really couldn't do any of this without you, so many thanks to you all ❤️

We are thrilled with the response to the latest video. In just 2 hours, it has been viewed over 800 times over Facebook and TikTok and nothing but positive responses! We set out to promote our local musical talent and even if one person chooses to see the band/artist, or they get one more booking because of it, we really couldn't be happier. To anyone that has viewed, listened to the music and most importantly, the artists themselves and the venues that host them, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We hope we have contributed in some small way to keep our local musical talent and venues alive and thriving ❤️

We are absolutely delighted to present our video of the week, where we met Park 56 at The Wharf Tavern in Stalybridge. At the age of just 14, Will, Felix and Louie not only show superb professionalism and talent, they deliver a fantastic set full of your Indie Rock favourites from Oasis to The Arctic Monkeys. They truly have a wonderful dynamic, and they are definitely ones to watch for the future. I predict this isn't the last you'll hear of them, and we wish them every success! They certainly deserve it. Many thanks to the lads ❤️
