Thank you to everyone that came out to support the local musicians and charity at last Saturday's Redcliffe Session. 45% of tickets sales went towards funding St Mary Redcliffe's aim to transition to a sustainable energy source. Thank you to the wonderful musicians Mimi, Cat, Alice and Alex and our sound technician, Norton, from Earthwerks for helping make the session happen.

These sessions focus on songwriting and give the opportunity to listen to the artistry of Bristol's Musicians in a space that provides natural ambience and reverb.

We will be taking a break for the summer and autumn from the Redcliffe Sessions due to the Church's busy diary and staffing but are set to return in January! Please get in touch if you have any questions about getting involved or staying updated with the Redcliffe Sessions. Local Musicians supporting Local Charities!
