Music Man Bristol and Bath met for the first time on Saturday 14th of April 2018. There were X members in 2018 and as of August 2025 there are 28 members with a substantial waiting list. This is a very popular club. We have created a timeline of performances and notable events in the development of our amazing musicians

Music Man Project Bridgwater Concert
The musicians from our Music Man Project group headed down to Bridgwater this month for the first of a kind joint concert for smaller regional areas.
Although we have joined together with all of the MMP groups for a large massed concert at the Albert Hall, this was the first smaller scale regional concert to take place jointly with other groups.
Led by founder David Stanley, we joined together with Global Ambassadors from the Music Man Project Essex, and newly formed group the Music Man Project Somerset.
It was great to see our blue, green and red groups performing together in a wonderful concert in the town hall.
With another new group having been recently formed in Portsmouth, which isn’t a million miles away, we look forward to doing something similar again soon!
