   About HED

HED is a promoter and booking agent based within the city of Preston, Lancashire. Formed in August 2005, our ethos is to try to create greater awareness and interest in live music. We strive to create exciting line-ups covering the full spectrum of musical genres.

We organise gigs at the Mad Ferret which is located opposite the University - close to the city centre. All gigs are 'pay on the door' only unless otherwise stated. You can check out all gig listings for the Mad Ferret at:

www.themadferret.com

We also act as management for 'Nice Peter' (from Chicago, USA) and also represent Ivan Campo (from Manchester, UK). If you are interested in booking, press or general enquiries for either act - please get in touch.

Thanks for accepting the request.

We're looking to compile a top resource directory for unsigned bands and to also promote services, promoters, venues etc who are helping the unsigned industry and would love it if you would add yourself to our directory.

To submit your link just visit http://www.theunsigneddirectory.co.uk/suggest.php?action=addlink and fill in the details it takes less than a minute and is 100% free. You can even add a link to an RSS feed (could be your MySpace blog) which means that your latest news will be displayed against your listing.

Thanks
