Huge congratulations to Futureworks alumni Lewis Cooper and Caleb Riley, whose animation work features in the latest campaign for the new @mandyindiana album Urgh – recently awarded a rare 5-star review in The Guardian ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The band invited artists to create 30 second films inspired by themes of ‘sickness’ from the track “Sicko” – check out the official video on YouTube.

• Lewis – video at 0:30
• Caleb – video at 1:00

The band’s guitarist Scott Fair is also a Futureworks Music Production alum (Class of 2018). A brilliant example of cross disciplinary alumni success.

A big shout out to our former Film & TV lecturer Andrew McKee, whose editing work helped shape the success of Waterloo Road, now in its 17th season on BBC iPlayer.

The series picked up two awards at this year’s RTS Awards:

• Best Continuing Drama Storyline – “The Murder of Boz” (featuring Jason Manford)
• Best Inclusive Practice

Amazing work, Andy – and a reminder of the industry experience behind our teaching.

Shot at The King’s Arms, Salford – big thanks to the team there. A proper wrap 👏

Hosting The BRIT Awards in Manchester was a huge moment for the city – and a brilliant opportunity for our students to engage with a major national creative event.

Big thanks to Tom Clarke (@sharpfutures) and the team at Brighter Sound for inviting Futureworks students to attend the BRITs FringeLab before the awards.

If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the stunning FringeLab performance of “Berghain” by Rosalía ft. Björk – an unforgettable moment.

OUT NOW: Light In The Dark, the second single from Coulson's forthcoming 'The Event' album at the end of Feb '26.

Coulson, where expertise meets raw talent. Born in Crosby. Built on Rock. ⚡️

THE LINEUP: 🎤 Drew | Vocals 🎸 Andy & Peter | Guitars 🎹 George | Keyboards 🎸 Steve | Bass 🥁 Mark | Drums

They're sound is built on a rock foundation, but here to take you on a journey. They produce music that hits your heart, gets you lost in deep thought, and when the rhythm takes over, leaves you dancing without a care.

From the heart of Crosby, direct to your ears. They are Coulson.

Ruby Grace is the first single from Coulson's forthcoming album on Futurework's 1043 Recordings due end Jan '26.

Produced by graduate music producer, George Kirwan and mastered by Graeme Lynch and Ollie Crockford at Futureworks Mastering Suite. When you forge together expertise, experience, and a deep musical knowledge with pure, raw songwriting talent, bristling with passion and creativity, you end up with Coulson. A tight group of Liverpool-based musicians from the Crosby area of the city. The group comprises Steve (bass), Andy and Peter (guitars), Mark (drums), George (keyboards) and Drew (vocals). Based upon a rock foundation, the group hit your heart, put a spring in your step, and have you lost in deep thought, and occasionally dancing away without a care. Bring it on, the album's a fantastic piece of work!

Mastered by Graeme Lynch and Ollie Crockford at Futureworks Mastering Suite.

Produced by George Kirwan
