Artists

Neighbourhood Sessions is a place to play your songs to an audience that want to hear them.

Our aim as organisers is to provide a gig that you leave full of joy knowing you have connected to an appreciative and engaged audience. We will do our best to make this gig as easy as possible from pre event info, to soundcheck, merch space and a small green room. We provide all the PA and lights and work hard to promote all our gigs to our mailing list of over 350 people.

As a not for profit event, we take approximately £1 - £1.5 from each ticket to cover ticket fees and costs and look to provide the rest to the artists performing. We can be fleixble on ticket prices with the aim to balance making this local gig as affordable as possible for the audience whilst being a meaningful amount for you.

Our events are about 90mins to 2 hours, split across two sets, which might be a support act or a whole evening takeover.

We are working on putting up a submission page which - we recognise we are significantly behind in replying to a lot of requests to play. Please forgive us for this delay!

Feedback from some of the artists we have had is below:

Lydia Clowes

Everything was so smooth and well run, everybody involved was really welcoming and it couldn’t have been a nicer experience. It felt like a lot of love and care goes into the events and the audience were also very quiet, respectful and lovely. The info you gave beforehand was very detailed and I had everything I needed in advance so thanks!

Ed Blunt

Neighbourhood Sessions is the musician's dream: attentive and friendly audience, beautiful sound and lighting, and smooth organisation. One of my favourite gigs of the year.

The Velveteen Orkestra

Playing at Neighbourhood Sessions was such a positive experience. Everybody involved with the show was so warm, welcoming and supportive and definitely what the local area needs. I would whole-heartedly encourage artists to play a show here.

Tu-Kay and Ryan

Neighbourhood sessions was a dream gig. Fantastic organisation and communication from start to finish. We received a warm welcome and were looked after brilliantly by Steve, Simon and Ben. To play to a full crowd was such a joy and pleasure and we were humbled by the response we received to our performance and songs. We cannot thank Steve enough for inviting us and recommend Neighbourhood Sessions to performers and audiences alike; it is a night that will uplift you and bring you joy.

Neighbourhood sessions really is such an amazing and warm atmosphere, I had heard this before playing there but it was backed up on the night! Steve and the team make it such a lovely place to play!

We had the best time - thank you so much for having us and your hospitality and just everything. It was so brilliant and I would recommend you as a venue to any musician! It exceeded expectations!

It was a fantastic night, really beautiful space, great ambience and mood. And so nice to perform in such an attentive space, which is a testament to the great ethos that you've curated for the nights. Whole gig experience was great.
