- Sister (or brother) pub to mono, we opened our doors in november 2007 after relocating from the west end to a Charles Rennie MacKintosh building in the city centre. We have quickly established ourselves as a key live venue in the city, club venue and relaxed cafe bar – "at laid-back Stereo the mood is Bohemian and refreshingly non-corporate, always something to be applauded in a city centre where so many of the eating out possibilities are clones or chains."

This is to inform you that after nearly 12 years apart APNA SANGEET have decided to reunite for a very big cause for one performance only to RAISE FUNDS TO BUILD SHELTERS FOR HOMELESS CHILDREN IN INDIA AND SRI LANKA
The name of the charity is BRIDGE OF LOVE TRUST UK reg. charity number 1096302 website www.bridge-of-love.org/
The charity’s focus is on Sri Lanka and to a lesser extent, South India and its main objectives are:
§ To relieve poverty, sickness and distress amongst children and widows.
§ To advance the education of children and young people who are in severe financial need by providing books, equipment and grants
This charity function will take place at second city suite 100 Sherlock Street Birmingham B5 6LT on Friday evening of 29th of May 2009 with buffet Dinner sponsored by Sukhdev Catering Services
All the original members have put their differences aside for this worthy cause which has captured our hearts and bought us together, with the common aim of raising valuable funds to help those poor, defenseless children, whose plight is the result of the fighting and war in their country. One evening of our time, promises to provide a great night of entertainment for APNA SANGEET fans, plus enables us to raise much needed funds to help the lives of those children who do not have the means of helping themselves.
Obviously, to increase the success of this event and to maximize the funds that we can raise, we need to raise the profile of this event and get as many supporters and sponsors on board. For this purpose, I would appreciate if you would consider putting yourself forward as a formal sponsor by making a contribution and if you could recommend other sponsors who would be interested in supporting, to help promote the event and its cause. I need to have all my sponsors identified ASAP in order to insure that I can include them in my publicity material.
Please please please support this worthy cause from your heart
Any support and help you can provide is welcomed and appreciated.

MAPPING PROJECT UNDERWAY
The Bristol Music Foundation is carrying out a project to map the music industry in the South West. This project aims to assess the activity of music practitioners within the region in order to aid the provision of focused support for business, professional and performance development.
Run in partnership with the SW Regional Development Agency, SW Screen, and UK music trade organisations, it will look to demonstrate the size and economic impact of the music industry in the South West in order to advocate and lobby for increased investment. Let’s face it, anything would be welcome.
We will be launching this project at the event in Bristol on 26th Feb.
SOUTH WEST MUSIC FORUM
Representatives of each regional music network will be meeting again in Bristol on Feb 9th to agree a Terms of Reference for a South West Music Forum.
Such a region-wide organisation will connect individuals and businesses, support joined up activity, and provide a platform for dynamic and groundbreaking projects that will have an impact for the South West nationally and internationally.
And why not.
