LIVE music is proving a big hit at The Studio in Lacey Street, Widnes.

Local talent The Gentle Scars who recently performed support slots with Deaf School and Electric 6, Fidel Afro, Crown of Fools and Catherine Hardman are staging a Christmas gig.

They will be on stage in a show called Into The Void II at 7.30pm, on Saturday, December 21.

Louise Nulty, Access All Areas project manager said: “It's great to have local bands playing here more regularly, especially ones that have used the rehearsal rooms in the past.

“The Studio is a great venue and a change from being in local pub where many in the audience are either eating their tea or watching the football."
