JOIN the uprising this Friday when the first weekly gig night comes to the WA1 club to champion the town's unsigned bands.

Hosted at the Legh Street venue, this new event will showcase Red Mojo, The North and Redshift as the capable trio get ready to rock the night away.

Aiming to attract the north west's finest unsigned talent, outfits like McGill, The Fix, Ocean's 8, General Public (the list is endless) bands are now fine-tuning their instruments to deliver their best sets over the coming weeks.

Since the demise of the Warrington Musical Collective last year, young burgeoning bands have struggled to gain deserved recognition.

This weekly event, endorsed by Dawsons Music, comes in response to calls from record companies to be invited to regularly filled music halls to herald upcoming bands.
