Showcase of the music project for 14-21 year olds that runs weekly on Wednesdays at Down By Here on High Street.
Future Blood is back at Down By Here on Wednesday 11 November, from 6pm to 9pm. It's a music development project for 14-21 year olds, and this particular night is one of the regular showcases where the participants get to play what they've been working on. If you've got a younger sibling, a cousin, or a friend in that age bracket who's playing, it's a good chance to see them out on stage.
The project runs weekly on Wednesdays between 6pm and 9pm at Down By Here on Swansea's historic High Street, and these showcases are a key part of the programme. It's overseen by Rich Thair of Red Snapper and Steve Balsamo, known for Jesus Christ Superstar and The Storys, and it gives young musicians a supportive environment to learn and hone their craft. The showcases are where that work comes out of the rehearsal room and into the public, so you're hearing things in progress rather than a polished, finished product.

Down By Here itself was reborn in 2026 and now books everything from Welsh folk groups and Afrobeat bands to poetry, comedy and cabaret nights, and it prides itself on hosting acts that might not fit other venues. Among its regulars is The Talisman, billed as Swansea's longest-running poetry and spoken word open mic, curated by Rebecca Lowe. The venue is at 210 High Street, SA1 1PE, and the Future Blood showcase runs from 6pm to 9pm on Wednesday 11 November.
