Help Us Keep NE Volume Music Bar Alive

Our Journey

In March 2020, NE Volume Music Bar opened its doors in Stockton-on-Tees, offering a haven for music enthusiasts and artists alike. Since then, we've become a cherished part of the community, hosting a diverse array of live music events. 

Throughout the pandemic, we remained steadfast, adapting to challenges by hosting virtual events to keep the spirit of live music alive. Our commitment to the community has been unwavering and we've been privileged to witness the resilience and passion of our patrons and performers.

The Heart of Our Community

NE Volume Music Bar isn't just a venue - it's a gathering place where friendships are forged, creativity flourishes, and memories are made. From intimate acoustic sessions to electrifying rock performances, we've strived to offer something for everyone. And our monthly music and culture magazine, a labour of love for over nine years, reflects our dedication to the local arts scene. 

Facing Challenges Together

Like many independent venues, we've faced financial hurdles, including rising energy costs and the need for ongoing maintenance. These increased costs have been a constant concern, limiting our ability to invest in improvements and support emerging talent.

Why Your Support Matters

The live music sector is under significant pressure, with many venues struggling to survive – just ask the Music Venues Trust. Your support can make a world of difference, ensuring that NE Volume Music Bar continues to be a vibrant part of Stockton-on-Tees.

• Phase 1: £5,000 – Stabilise Our Finances
  • Stabilise our finances to secure the venue's future and ensure NE Volume remains a hub for music lovers for years to come.
• Phase 2: £5,000 – Enhance Our Venue
  • Any additional funding over £5000 will be used to upgrade our PA system to improve band and guests’ experience
  • Any additional funding over £5000 will be used to upgrade our stage lighting to improve performances
