WaterBear took over the stage at Peddler Market on Saturday! Featuring: 👉 Alice Ede 👉 Katesley Arriola 👉 Kid Blu3 👉 Francis Gordon 👉 Savannah Dion 👉 Taking Back Tomorrow 👉 Good Damage Our students were also joined by the amazing Cherry Seraph on the lineup!

We’ve been delighted to see WaterBear appearing in the news recently! In print and on TV, from the BBC to smaller, more regional outfits, it’s been great seeing the college, as well as our students, getting the attention! Here’s a little recap!

A week (or two) in the life of our Sheffield student Kid Blu3! Our BA (Hons) Songwriting student, Kid Blu3, has been performing all over the country over the last couple of weeks, from Tramlines to Boomtown, so we wanted to catch up with her and see how she was getting on!

It's part 5 of our Brighton student JT's deep dive into the music of WaterBear! Are you a WaterBear artist who wants their music featured on our socials? Make sure you send us your tracks and details!

In case you missed it, we hosted a Guitar Pedal Fair at our venue! It featured exhibitors from a number of amazing pedal makers, as well as some pedal swaps, live guitar demos, and even a charity auction! Thanks to all our exhibitors, as well as everyone who attended!

Well, I'm jealous; I bet you are too! Thanks to BOSS for their absolutely lovely gift of a Katana amp to one of our staff members!

Today we wanted to highlight one of our Sheffield student bands, Sundress!
