Very True
Every gig has a support act.
Most of the time, it’s the band on before the band you came to see. But there’s another support act too.
It’s the people who believe grassroots music is worth showing up for. The people who understand that venues don’t stay open through luck, and that scenes are built by people who keep turning up, taking risks and putting nights on the line.
That’s what the Supporters Circle is.
A growing community of people backing the venues that give grassroots music somewhere to exist. The places where nights happen, music gets discovered, and everything starts to take shape.
Because when a grassroots venue stays open, it means more gigs happen, more chances get made, and more of the culture you care about gets to keep going.
