Not only do we want the best new bands in the world to play at Sound City, we want to help the next new best bands in the world get here too.

And that’s where Youth Live comes in.
Now in its fourth year, Youth Live is committed to nurturing and developing the musical talent that helps to make our city the place it is.

A programme of events specifically aimed at young people aged 16 – 19 from across Merseyside, since its launch in 2008 young bands and artists of every musical genre have had the opportunity to learn, gain experience and, for the lucky few, play at Sound City proper - in front of the best fans in the world and the massed ranks of the music industry. The sort of opportunity that you don’t get every day, we’re sure you’ll agree.

The bands picked also receive mentorship and support from industry professionals, so whatever your musical genre ,  If you are between 16-19 and have the passion, talent and determination to be the next great hope, get in touch and send your name, links and full contact details here
