Eight brilliant, up-and-coming artists will all perform at a one-off free showcase concert
Including:
Drew Allen
Ben Cipolla
Alphonse Daudet & Helele
Darren Hodge
Michael Padron & Cuba Jazz Brotherhood
Quiescent
Durga Ramakrishnan
Isobel Thatcher
These groups and musicians come from as far afield as Cameroon, Cuba, India, Bournemouth, Salisbury, Taunton…and Bristol!
All of these young musicians and bands have been taking part in a mentorship programme called Routes South West funded by the Arts Council of England.
Routes South West is led by Bristol Music Trust at the Colston Hall and it also operates a touring consortium for regional South West music tours.
The eight acts performing at January’s Showcase offer an incredible diversity of music and a very high level of creativity.
The Showcase will run from 7.00-10.00pm on Friday 30 January with a non-stop evening of great music…including a prize raffle. And it’s all for free!
We'd love to hear your memories of the performance. Add your photos, reviews and memories via Twitter using the hashtags: #bristolbeacon and #show86721 and they will appear on this page
