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

This regular event at The Met features three 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 July event features…

Alina Ly

Singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Alina Ly began her career in Seattle, Washington’s music scene in 2011, then to Los Angeles, California in 2013 and soon after to the UK. While playing a countless number of shows around the world and recording between her home cities, Alina released multiple successful singles over the years and sold out her debut headline shows across the UK. Since then, Alina has been immersed in various projects and co-writes, but most notably working on her debut album and her forthcoming six piece band.

Gideon Conn

The search for a new sound continues into a third decade for Manchester artist and musician Gideon Conn. A part time job in a hardware store provides routine, rhythm and a window to the world, invigorating his songwriting process. With a fifth album around the corner, follow Gideon on his journey through jazz soul and hiphop.

Ben P Williams

The evening will be presented by Manchester based singer-songwriter Ben P Williams, whose songs have seen support from BBC Radio 6, BBC Radio 2 and BBC Introducing. Moulding the classic song-writing sound of Paul Simon with the laid-back nature of Jack Johnson, Ben draws inspiration from the greats while injecting his own wit and imagination into lyrics and melodies which can’t help but bring a smile to your face.
