The second on Wednesday 16, 8pm, is at Brown Street. Acts taking to the stage include not all there, Brodie Risby, Mary Wise and Megan Musslewhite.

The final event takes place at The Winchester Gate on Thursday 17 with live performances from live bands and solo acts. Doors open at 7.30pm.

Becca Maule, Chey Taylor, Leah Scott, Paige Tuthill, Bailey Grundy and Lydia Brooks plus a new duo called Bring Me The Black Hearts will be performing.

All three events will be free to enter.

Josh Ching, one of the students performing, said: “We have worked incredibly hard to provide not one but three nights of entertainment. Covid-19 has hit the music industry hard and we have come across many difficulties but we are overcoming them and hope to deliver quality entertainment to the city of Salisbury.”

Simon Birch, Lecturer in Music at the College’s Salisbury campus, added: “Our students are eagerly anticipating next week’s shows. We have some highly promising musicians on our courses and all three shows will provide a great night’s entertainment. We hope as many people can join us as possible.

“Performing live to an audience is a key aspect of any aspiring musicians’ development and we’re grateful to all the venues in their support for our students’ development as they look to make their first steps into the industry.”
