The pub collaborated with Truck Store and A New View Music to provide punters with a host of local talent.

These artists included Little Brother Eli, Steady Habits, Dolly Mavies, Tiger Mendoza, Max Blansjaar, Joely, The Jolly Grogsters Jonny Payne & The Thunder and Self Help.

The Up In Arms pub was previously known as The Somerset and reopened in 2019 after a campaign by locals to keep the pub open.
