“It has been a passion of ours since coming out of school and not really having a place we could hang out and express ourselves affordably in a chilled environment. “ Gavin
“ It’s incredibly exciting and we’re something that has been needed in our community for a long time that we’ve brought to life. There is nothing quite like what we have created around here and we’re excited to share it with you! “Andrew
“our creativity started in a garden shed, imagine where we could have been now if we had had this creative hang out then” Ben
“I have been waiting for this project since I was a bored teenager in Glastonbury. I am so grateful to the young team for taking initiative for all our future youth, we should all support this project “ Cllr Indra Donfrancesco, Mayor of Glastonbury

Converting their 57 – seater local school bus (which used to be their school bus 16+ years ago) built a unique music studio, it’s an awesome creative space that is so different and chilled, it’s a mobile studio) where you can just focus on making music without worries.
There are local graffiti artists who bring to life the spaces too!
There’s also rehearsal space where you can feel comfortable practicing for shows/gigs/events, you’ll never feel out if place here, and they are on hand for support. Whether you’re wanting to learn new skills or are already experienced, the space is available for all.
