Musicians - Since the dawn of music there has been 'local band rivalry'. Bands get on enough to do gigs together and maybe have the odd drink together but I don't see enough bands working together to build a scene, or help each other with co-writing, social media or even strategising together.

Imagine what could be achieved with 3 or 4 bands working together, the skill sets of 10-15 people working on building something that everyone can benefit from. The improvement of the songs if the main song-writers were bouncing off each other, the engagement on social media when there is cross pollination of creativity featuring different bands and members.

I don't mean musicians/bands who went to college together and are mates... I'm talking about bands meeting weekly to discuss what can be done as a collective of musicians to help each others gigs and fan bases grow...

It could be like Band Aid but in Hull!
