ArtsOne Rocks! Glastonthorne 2023

Sutton Music Trust celebrates all forms of music and works strategically to help children and young people to go on musical journeys. One of the ways in which we do this is through Music Hub partnerships to ensure that the students of Sutton have access to high-quality musical experiences. Read about ArtsOne Rock’s summer festival!

Join us for a remarkable event as we celebrate the ten-year anniversary of ArtsOne Rock’s annual showcase, Glastonthorne 2023! Taking place on Saturday, 8th July at noon, this festival-style extravaganza will be held outdoors in the courtyard of Glenthorne High School.

Our students have embarked on a unique project to commemorate this special milestone. They have dedicated their time to mastering songs performed by Glastonbury Headliners over the past decade, including beloved festival classics. Every song performed by Sessions 1, 2, and 3 will be a testament to the incredible talent and hard work displayed by our students.

In addition to the remarkable performances in our three sessions, we have some exciting guest sets lined up for you. We’ll be treated to performances by a group of graduating students, as well as an appearance from The Thornes, a professional band comprised of ArtsOne Rocks alumni. You do not want to miss this incredible showcase.

"Our students have poured their hearts and souls into their performances, and we are continually blown away by their exceptional musical abilities. But don’t just take my word for it; the Heads of Houses who judged Glenthorne’s Battle of the Bands competition were astounded by the level of talent and professionalism displayed by our bands, most of which consisted of ArtsOne Rocks regulars."
