Get A Round In brings together the best singer-songwriters for a Nashville style writers’ round.

This brand-new event at The Met features four artists sharing the stage to showcase their songwriting talent and tell the stories behind their music. Expect the very best of Greater Manchester’s acoustic talent.

Our special Christmas event features…

Joe Martin

His musical journey has seen him collaborate with some of Nashville’s top songwriters including Johnny Garcia of Garth Brooks’ band, hit writer Jill Collucci and Aaron Raitiere at RCA studios on Music Row. His sound is deeply rooted in the classic American style, with storytelling and lyric a main focus of Joe’s songwriting. Honing his sound over the years on the road, Joe’s personal stories have culminated in his debut album Empty Passenger Seat which has been released to much acclaim.
