The GT Live Sessions are a Guildford-based live music promotion and production company set up by local singer-songwriter and promoter Gavin Thomas. Embracing the flourishing local live music community, the sessions incorporate live gigs, showcase performances, open mic nights, theatrical concerts, and festivals. Gavin’s main aim through the GT Live Sessions is to promote up-and-coming singers, song writers, musicians and bands from the local area. The critically acclaimed GT Live Showcases give both newly-developing and seasoned artists the chance to perform with a fantastic sound in front of a supportive and listening audience, gaining experience and exposure.

I'm thrilled to be working with my usual GT Live Sessions team, including Duncan Cooper as Production Manager, and Joshua Robins (Audio Rent) as Sound Director, and we're very pleased to be working alongside Patrick Haveron (Psycho Management Company) and Mark Frogley (Hogs Back Brewery) to bring you something very special this summer. I'm also proud to confirm that One Summer's Day 2025 will be raising money for the Samaritans charity.
Alongside the top quality live music there will be food stalls, fully stocked bars, children's entertainment, all with a stunning view of the Surrey Hills.
