The event will feature live musical performances from local acts including Last Place Heroes, Suzi Jodie, Asbestos, James Scarle and Josh Aitken.

As well as supporting local musicians, the Innovation nights test out local venues.

Nathan Jones, of ADeC who are supporting the event, said: “It has been fantastic to be able to offer young people a regular series of professional events where they can showcase and develop their skills.

“It’s been wonderful to see young musicians get better and better with each show.

“On February 19 we will welcome back Josh Aitken and Suzie Jodie who made a big impression at The Maltings last month.

“The occasion will mark the first performance at an Innovation night for punk band Asbestos, so we are looking forward to seeing them in action.

“It will also be the first appearance by up and coming singer-songwriter Elle Easton.”
