Sadly we have decided to cancel John Helliwell's Ever Open Door show @metbury which was due to take place at the end of March.

Everyones safety is our biggest priority, and we have all come so far together. We hope this is the last gig we cancel & are looking forward to rescheduling all the gigs we can ASAP.

All purchased tickets will be refunded.

Better times are just around the corner!

James' Picks Playlist 🎧

James is currently doing a postgrad at University of Manchester and we're lucky to have him on board the team. We thought we'd squeeze a playlist out of him while he's here!

Following on from last weeks funky selection a la Toby (Producer & Partnerships manager) we're back this week with Ralph's (Business Manager) favourite sounds from 2020.

Ranging from @matthewhalsallmusic to @saultglobal, with a cheeky little bit of Taylor Swift for good measure. Yay or nay?

Due to the current lockdown restrictions we regret

Due to the current lockdown restrictions we regret to announce that @dennisrollinsfunkytrombone's Velocity Trio gig at @metbury has been cancelled.

This gig was due to take place on Saturday 20th February 2021, but the uncertainty brought on by national lockdown makes it unsafe and incredibly difficult to plan for an event both for us and the musicians involved. As with the cancelled Camilla George gig, all purchased tickets will be refunded and you will receive an email to this effect.

We truly hope that we will be able to see our future planned events come to fruition in some shape or another, and that it won’t be too long until we can host the wonderful Dennis Rollins’ Velocity Trio!

Since 2000 we’ve commissioned 25 major works through mjf originals.

This year we’re looking for innovative ideas for how the commission can be performed & experienced 🏡💻🎧

Submit your proposal to us before next Monday 25th January via the link in our bio.
