Rare opportunity: Up-and-coming talent Lucy-Anne Daniels joins us in Leeds after her personal milestone show at Southbank Centre in March. Lucy-Anne was the winner of the 2025 Tina May Young Jazz Musician Award, with judges praising her “rhythmic freedom and inventiveness… and irresistible sense of sheer enjoyment”. TEDx Speaker Hughie Brown brings the music business to vivid life for guests, with insights into conventional and unconventional routes to market. Expect entertaining riffs as our speakers share their stories through songs and conversations in this unique and intimate event.

Bonus: A tax accountant with a sharp eye on the bottom line is around to address any finance topics you may have.
