🎤 Severn Sounds is Hanging Up the Mics! 🎤
After years of showcasing incredible young talent, the Severn Sounds team is bidding a heartfelt farewell!
Founded by Scott Howland and Ben Russell, Severn Sounds began as a platform for young musicians to perform at local venues. With unwavering support from Rob Thomson, our dream expanded to a full weekend at The Pavilion, where hundreds of young musicians wowed audiences with their original music and covers. 🎶
Our journey continued to Mello Festival! MASSIVE thank you to Cass & Steina Castledine & the Sunshine Festival team... Spencer Lowe Steve Barnes & Steve High!
We were honoured to work with the fantastic team at One Stage Technical (now Eventera AV Limited) under Mike Vayle, alongside Jack Bates, Charles Schofield, Chelsea Westlake, and Bobby Hanson. 🌟
Thanks to everyone’s generosity, we’ve raised thousands for local charities, including Acorns Children's Hospice, New Hope Worcester, and Worcestershire Breast Unit Haven which recently received £3,686.95! ❤️
To all the volunteers, committee members, and supporters who made Severn Sounds possible—from Scott Howland and Ben Russell to all of you who lent a hand or voice—thank you. And to the incredible young musicians who have graced our stages, you are what made Severn Sounds truly special. 🙏🎸
A huge shout-out to our amazing sponsors—The Bransford Trust, National Lottery Funding, Phil Lewis - Taylor Hart, Rite Fix, and many other local businesses who supported us for over a decade.
It’s been an unforgettable journey. Thank you, everyone, for helping make Severn Sounds a home for young talent and a powerful force in our community. 🎶💫
