MDMArchive is currently undertaking some research for a proposed exhibition at Salford Museum and Art Gallery on music-making in Salford over the last fifty years.

We're particularly interested in hearing about performances at Salford University. Have you seen a gig there? Who did you see? What can you remember about the performance? Do you have any memorabilia relating to the gig?

We'd also like information on music-making in Salford in general, with particular emphasis on less well-known musicians/venues/pubs/scenes.
