In 2016, Sunbird Records opened a DIY live music venue in the heart of Darwen. This creative hub is nestled in the rolling hills of Lancashire – also known as ‘near Manchester’. The label and its home have been built and shaped by a growing neo-tribe of like-minded individuals, with a collective drive to launch new alternative music and culture, into the industry. Originally a decommissioned bank, the venue features a basement bank vault that has been transformed into a cutting edge recording studio. The venue has established itself as a tour stop for many artists, having already hosted 100’s of live acts from across the world, from our own local heroes to our musically inclined friends across the pacific. We are proud to present the Sunbird Records venue – a space to craft and showcase pioneering musicianship and diversity.
