On Wednesday 13 December, students from Wirral Met’s music department took part in a showcase at local gig venue, Future Yard.
Five artists featured at the showcase, which welcomed students, staff, and the local community for an evening of live music.
Each act performed a 30-minute set, comprised of original releases and covers.
Isaac Cleary kicked off proceedings with an acoustic set, with guitar and bass duo Wind Soles following after. The musical trio of Cupids Chorus then took to the stage, followed by a solo performance by Alisha Peters. The evening concluded with rock band Supernova.
The evening was made possible thanks to Wirral Met’s partnership with Future Yard.
