Creative Sounds

Creative Sounds is a non-profit voluntary organisation dedicated to the encouragement of musical, artistic and performance activities. We run a venue known as the Stomach.  

The Stomach hosts approximately two shows a month. One will be a show we organise, and the other is often a touring band, or local bands putting on their own show. If you are a new local band, we'd like you to have a 15 to 20 minute set of your own songs. When you do, feel free to contact us to hook up a spot in a line up.  If you want book your own performance/show our friendly staff will be happy to help. Touring groups are most welcome too; if you really want to play a licensed venue we can point you in the right direction there. We have a vocal PA available for general use, anything stronger is available for hire.

Music Education  
Creative Sounds doesn't provide music lessons, but our rehearsal rooms are available for use for music lessons. We can normally suggest a teacher for whichever instrument you wish to learn.  In addition, we provide all kinds of workshops in everything from drumming to turntabling to womens' music to heavy metal riffing! Some of these are provided on a per demand basis: if enough interest is expressed we'll go to work on it. So if you're into it, let us know...  If you have knowledge to contribute and you think you'd like to help out or even run a workshop yourself, by all means get in touch!
