JOHN ROBB DJ SET & CREATION RECORDS CELEBRATION AT RISE
4th November 201, Rise Cheltenham
Rise, the award winning independent music store based in the Beechwood Shopping Centre, Cheltenham, will be holding a special celebration of the famed independent music label Creation Records on Friday 4 November 2011. The independent label founded in 1983 was home to some of the UK’s most iconic bands including the likes of Oasis and Primal Scream. To help kick-start the event, former lead singer of Creation band ‘The Membranes’ turned author John Robb will be playing a live DJ set of some of his favourite Creation tunes in store from 3.30pm. Also attending the event will be Danny O’Connor, the director of the recent film documentary ‘Upside Down’ about the history of the maverick music label. The film will then be showing in full later the same day at the Parabola Arts Centre as part of this year’s Cheltenham Film Festival. Rise store manager Ben Hughes said “I was a big fan of bands on Creation Records and since we announced the event a lot of customers have been reminiscing about some of the great music that they put out. It’s been great working with the guys from the Film Festival and I really pleased John and Danny are coming down to the store”.
The event is free entry.
