Gan On is a music website and magazine based in Sunderland, by and for creatives. 

The project was founded in 2023 by a group of people dedicated to the promotion of local music, arts, and culture. Having been created as a collaborative project between local music lovers as a passion project, Gan On is as a go-to source for the local music scene.

We are an inclusive community and encourage creatives to get involved to sharpen and showcase their skills, whether that be in writing, photography, or content creation.

We release print editions quarterly which are stocked at a number of Sunderland-based hubs and businesses.
