Stories In Song Networking Event

Free public event: Live music, industry panel, networking and exclusive new songs from Liverpool's next generation of songwriters.

Join us for an inspiring networking event that highlights the incredible talent of the young songwriters who have taken part in Stories In Song led by Georgie Weston, Capeesh and Afloat Theatre. The event will bring together emerging artists, music industry professionals, producers, and creatives for an opportunity to connect, learn, and celebrate the next generation of songwriters.

This event marks the culmination of the 2026 Stories In Song programme, where young creatives developed their songwriting skills, collaborated with fellow artists, explored identity through music, and recorded original songs in a professional studio. Come along to support emerging artists, discover new music, make new connections, and celebrate the voices shaping the future of songwriting.
