Recipient Org: Description Hushed is an organisation that promotes local song writers and performers by putting on live events to create performance spaces and build audiences for local artists. We have been operating relatively successfully over the last 3 years mainly at The Lab, making regular platforms for local song writers and filming the performances so they can be used as promotional material. We started as a monthly event on an ad hoc basis and then The Lab applied for funding to make more professional content. We ran a monthly event and must have made over 150 promo videos of local artists representing the wide diversity of our community performing as we shot with 3 cameras and created promos for the performers and content to promote The Lab. We want to reestablish the group now, we have a constitution and although many of our group are film makers and inevitably will be documenting performances, we want to focus more on creating performance opportunities and build audiences for songwriters/performers, by establishing a couple of day events so that we can build healthy audiences and also then establish a mobile "pop up" stage, so that we can organise regular public performances in unlikely venues, such as at All Saints church steps and involve ourselves at spots around the town that would not otherwise considered local music/entertainment, plus we can easily attach ourselves to other fetes, public events and spaces around the county.
