Unsigned

Bringing you music from unsigned artists, made in and around the Sheffield area.

Sheffield has a wealth of musical talent – hundreds of musicians, dozens of recording studios, rehearsal spaces, and venues. Making music of every genre – rock, folk, jazz, ska, classical, electronica, orchestral, reggae, choral, metal and more, most of this is made by musicians who are not signed to any record label and get no support to make their music.

Peter Brooks will bring you some of this music every week, from any genre – from anyone, in this new weekly, one-hour show, every Wednesday from 13:00 – 14:00.

As well as recorded music, we’ll be having regular guests in the studio to play live and have a chat about why they do what they do.

If you’re out there gigging and want to get your music played on the show, just send it in to Unsigned at Sheffield Live if it’s a CD, or email a link to a download to unsigned@sheffieldlive.org. Make sure it’s well recorded, studio quality, not just played into a ’phone, and we won’t broadcast anything obscene.

You could have a look at the show’s Facebook page as well for details: https://www.facebook.com/unsignedsheffieldlive.org/

I can’t play your music if you don’t send it to me. I’m waiting…
