A one day celebration of brilliant music, amazing songwriters and local talent in a very special setting

The Songwriters Festival sees some of the award-winning artists of the last year including AMAUK Artist of the Year 2023 Elles Bailey and AMAUK Song of the Year winner Hannah White share the stage with some of the finest working today, alongside stalwarts established decades before in bands such as Freddie and the Scenarios (The Vaccines), Noah and the Whale and Michele Stodart (The Magic Numbers).

The beautiful Assembly Rooms setting will provide a laid back and stripped bare experience, with The Main Stage centred in the middle of the magnificent Octagon Room, allowing the artists the freedom to trade stories in an informal setting, collaborate and jam on each other’s tunes.  

As ever with a 7 Hills event, there is a thriving representation of local artists in the community and a didactic platform for young musicians with a stage to showcase young-Bathonians on the rise. 

The Songwriters Festival is a passion project of songwriter and Bath-resident Matt Owens. The 7 Hills have been curating critically-acclaimed grassroots Festivals across the city for the last 5 years, and watching their little Festival-within-a-Festival at Lovefields, grow year-on-year into a 3 stage behemoth at Glastonbury Festival. 

The 7 Hills are delighted to be pairing up with Curious Minds and the Bath Arts Collective to shine a spotlight on the potency of lyricism and storytelling in song, set to be showcased by some of the best in the business.
