Pen in hand, ribbon in hair, 19 year old singer songwriter Isabel Maria has been shattering expectations since 2021. Having recently won a North East Culture Award - to join the Alan Hull and Northern Writers Awards sitting proudly on her bookshelf - Isabel’s alternative pop dialogues of mental health, human relationships, and self deprecation have earned her international praise from the likes of BBC Radio 1 and Rolling Stone Español.

Based in Sunderland, UK - a recently coined ‘music city’ - Isabel’s career had humble beginnings with secret songs written on her grandad’s old Casio. After generous support from the city’s Young Musicians Project, those songs hit the ears of the public, earning Isabel hundreds of thousands of collective streams and a frequent run of shows across the nation and beyond.

For fans of Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, and Gracie Abrams, Isabel’s music is a true showcase of her emotional vulnerability and biting wit. Fresh off a huge national run of 2025 shows - from major festivals like Kendal Calling and support slots with the likes of Tom A Smith, to a miniature USA tour, she’s not stopping anytime soon.

Description

The Green Room, an integral part of Green Dragon Studios, serves as a vital cultural artery within Stockton-on-Tees. Operated by the charitable Tees Music Alliance, this intimate venue is more than just a performance space; it functions as a dedicated hub for nurturing local musical talent and fostering community engagement across the region. Its commitment extends to building a thriving live music scene, underpinned by a strong sense of social responsibility.

Within its brick and mortar walls, dating back to the 18th century, the atmosphere is one of focused intimacy. The low, warm lighting casts a gentle glow on the compact stage, creating a sense of shared experience between performer and audience. The worn textures of the interior, a testament to countless evenings of live sound, contribute to a grounded, authentic feel, far removed from sterile commercial spaces.

This micro-venue, with a capacity of 60, offers a straightforward, accessible experience for all patrons, featuring level access from the entrance and accessible toilet facilities. While a dedicated garden space isn't a feature, its location within Green Dragon Studios, adjacent to The Georgian Theatre, places it within a vibrant cultural quarter. A selection of drinks is available, complementing the relaxed, focused environment.

The programming at The Green Room is thoughtfully curated, often showcasing acoustic performances and stripped-back sets from emerging and established artists. It is particularly known for events championing women and gender minorities, providing a crucial platform for diverse voices. Beyond scheduled performances, the space also accommodates open jam sessions and can be hired for private gatherings, further cementing its role as a flexible community asset.
