We're Brighter Sound, a music development organisation rooted in Manchester and open to the world.

For 24 years we've been creating transformative experiences for young creatives, emerging artists and up-and-coming music professionals.

We pioneer new ways of exploring creative potential. Our projects are a safe space for artists to take risks, connect and collaborate, and develop skills and confidence. Our events are opportunities for audiences to discover the cutting edge of the North’s creative talent.

Equalising opportunity is in our DNA. At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to helping create a fairer music world. One where every voice is heard, every community served. Why? Because we think the power of creativity belongs to everyone.
