Starting out as a 7" singles club in 2015, Come Play With Me Records has now developed to have a growing roster of artists alongside our Next Up North Artist Development programme and Side By Side compilation album.

Next Up North is the first Artst Development Programme specifically supporting emerging Artists of marginalised genders and sexualities from the North Of England.

To ensure we have a breadth of diverse artists we have regular call outs to ensure a wide selection of genre and style is accounted for. These call outs are judged by music industry experts, with new guest judges every time to keep things fresh.

Our aim is to support & develop diverse artists and demographics, showcasing the best in new Northern talent. CPWM has previously released music from more than 80 artists including English Teacher, Bored At My Grandma's House, Mollie Coddled, Van Houten, Green Gardens, Fuzz Lightyear & more.
