GEAR Zine offers free promotion for musicians and visual artists, pioneering the grassroots scene in Bristol and beyond. We offer:

- Paid gig slots at our events

- Music features in our blog or magazine, including:

- Song promotion

- Interviews

- Gig reviews

- Promotion of written work (e.g., articles, poetry)

- Displaying artwork or photography in our magazine/online gallery/events

We give musicians and artists a space to hone their craft and reach new audiences, ultimately looking to further their careers in a notoriously fickle industry.

And we offer all of this for free --- meaning we have to make up costs through selling memberships, merchandise, and event tickets. Often, we barely break even.

Donations help us to continue the important work of supporting the grassroots music scene.

Just £5 (less than a pint!) could help us launch the next edition of our magazine, along with an accompanying launch event.
