Accessible venues are unfortunately very sparse across the UK.
While we in Era's End have been incredibly fortunate to have accessible venues in our hometown, we have noticed a disturbing lack of accessibility in major city venues as we've branched out across the country.
As a new, upcoming band, we often perform in intimate venues that lack adequate accessibility.
This issue is not just about our own experiences but also about ensuring that all disabled artists and fans have equal access to music events. We are committed to raising awareness about the critical need for widespread improvements in venue accessibility and are dedicated to advocating for this change .
Your support helps us in our mission to make the music industry more inclusive for everyone. Thank you for being part of this important journey with us.
MUSIC SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE FOR EVERYONE.
No Hope Street (NHS) is a particularly special song to the band as the theme concerns issues surrounding invisible disabilities and the lack of awareness towards them. This is due to both our vocalist Amy and bassist Beth, being diagnosed with connective tissue disorders (Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome) which affect every 1 in 6000.
As a band, we are working towards promoting better education towards overshadowed chronic illnesses and their treatment.
