Bring & Byte is an ideas lab, a weekend of playful thinking and hacking in the heart of the Pennines.  It brings together creative technologists, coders and developers with musicians, promoters and agents to prototype ideas that point to a more buoyant future for independent live music: how we promote, experience and enjoy it.

Bring & Byte is an invite only event –   a carefully curated group of 30 curious and generous people have been invited to work on shared ideas that could be game changers for the independent music sector. At the end of the weekend there’s also the chance to pitch for £1000 seed funding to take things further.

From the music sector, we’ve invited artists, promoters, managers, agents and (other people with less straight forward titles!) who are curious about the future of the live independent music sector, and keen to explore new ways of doing thing.

From the tech world, we’ll be joined by creative technologists, developers, data scientists and coders. In both instances, we’ve invited people who are willing to bring their experience to the table, but are able to think beyond their own situation about the proverbial ‘big picture’.

Bring & Byte is part of the hub’s Joining the Dots programme, supporting game-changing ideas, sharing know-how and connecting people within independent music.
