Songs from the Shed


The shed is a former army billet based in the countryside near Clevedon, belonging to Jon from thatcopyshop on Alexandra Road. It contains a fascinating collection of curiosities and is the perfect location for artists to take a break from the madness of touring, kick back for a while and watch some intimate lo-fi acoustic performances.


The collections in the shed were initially put together for meetings of a small group of friends with a love of Cheese and Cider, during one of their regular meetings in The Royal Oak it was suggested they try to get some musicians to play at the first meeting. The Cheese and Cider society was immediately dropped and Songs from The Shed was born.
