Anyone with new music, gigs, videos, collabs.. get in touch! We’re always keen to feature new and upcoming talent on the North West scene 🤘
We have six online features now and we’ll be looking for artists to perform across Manchester over the next few months or so, depending on restrictions – there’s so many new artists popping up all the time it’s hard to keep up with it sometimes! 🌞
Drop us an email at michael@breadrecords.co.uk – easily the best way to get in touch with us and we’ll sort you out with some lovely opportunities 🍞
today we’re stoked to be bringing you the brand new single from ME and Deboe – ‘You Are’ from their Sound Network session!
released just yesterday, this lovely live rendition of their song ‘You Are’ really captures their performance so well, blending lovely harmonies with their acoustic and electric guitars to really bring you a heart-wrenching session. with lovely lyrics, minimalistic yet powerful guitar playing, this is definitely one to watch on this lovely sunny Sunday afternoon!
head over to their YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUfOYxE12Hg to find the track in full, what a lovely performance. drop them a follow here on Facebook to keep up with what ME and Deboe are doing – we’re fully expecting them to be playing across Manchester very soon and wowing audiences with their folky storytelling! (you can also find this track over on all streaming sites as well!)
Absolutely made up with the reception that we’ve had from the recent Anyone’s Ghost and michael webster releases 🤘
We’ve had two lovely releases out over the past month and we’ve stoked to be able to say they’ve been some of our best ❤️ it’s super boss to be putting out such great music – it’s been 4 weeks since michael’s release and 2 weeks since the Anyone’s Ghost release 👻 so great!
Thank you all for such amazing reception on these! We sold out so quickly on the t shirts and we also have hit like 6k streams so quickly on the EP! You’re all amazing – find it all on our linktree at www.linktr.ee/breadrecords 🍞🍞🍞
our Knead To Know feature today is the fantastic Tom Metcalfe Music! originally from Preston (we’ve known Tom a long time!) Tom has just moved to Manchester and is sure to be a familiar face on the local scene
not only writing his own music, Tom also works as a guitar tutor, teaching not only guitar but extensively music theory, which he is extremely proficient in – he’s easily able to make even the most complicated theory easy to understand for budding guitarists; we’ve spoken to him about all kinds of scales and he’s taught us a whole bunch!
he’s also a session musician, multi-instrumentalist, composer.. if you need anyone to jump in and help out on a track, get in touch with him! he attained a Master’s Degree with Distinction in Music (Performance) from Salford University last year with a record-breaking mark of 96! he’s often seen performing as a flamenco guitarist with dance accompaniment – definitely one to watch here in Manchester.
Tom will also be the featured artist tonight at Lions Den Bar Deansgate for Laura Farrow‘s open mic – come on down and catch him doing what he does, you’ll surely be astounded at his guitarwork! if you’re looking for a guitar tutor, get in contact with Tom for sure. one of the best around!
if you’ve got a new release just drop us a message at michael@breadrecords.co.uk and we’ll do our best to get you on a feature. we love finding new music and supporting the local scene here in the North West!
we’ve got a lot of plans for the coming months, with gigs, features and even more! find it all on our website here at www.breadrecords.co.uk to find em all
Jess is a photographer originally from Liverpool, but now based up in Leeds for university. She’s been getting involved in the local music scenes across the North West for a few years now, and has been working a bunch with creatives across Liverpool up until the pandemic – and is looking now to expand further out into Leeds now that things are opening up again
As restrictions ease, Jess is hoping to make an impact with photography, focusing on gig photography and photoshoots for musicians, but also hoping to expand out into fashion and portrait photography. We’re proper looking forward to what is in store for Jess over the next few months, and her photography is insanely great!!
find more examples of Jessica’s work over on Instagram at @seymour.snaps and drop over a message if you fancy getting any shoots or collaborations done! love to see creatives doing well and supporting each other.
