Red Letter Day for Liverpool Band

Letters in Red

 Our old friend Graham Holland describes 'Letters in Red are ones to watch'

Award-winning Liverpool band LETTERS IN RED release their debut single FEEL ME, on Homegrown Records.

Feel Me is the sound of Letters in Red truly coming into their own; subtly blending their brand of acoustic folk with beats, synths and strings to create a lush and spacious backdrop for the evocative vocals - cinematic in scope.

The Department for Culture, Media and Sport has opened the first government funded professionally equipped music rehearsal space in the country, at the Knotty Ash Youth and Community Centre in Liverpool. This two music rooms will enable young bands to practice.

Culture Secretary Andy Burnham commented 'The rehearsal spaces at Knotty Ash are a fantastic new resource, providing a great leisure facility for young people and the chance to get experience in a whole range of areas that might lead to a career in the creative industries. This is just the beginning. Spaces owned by local authorities around the country are being transformed with Government money, and member companies of the Music Industries Association have been very generous in providing cut price instruments.'

Centrifuge Manchester open call for Muscians

October 2008 witnessed a new venture from the Frakture organisation  called Centrifuge. Centrifuge aims to provide a new opportunity in the North West for musicians, artists and listeners to meet, perform and share. Frakture administrator Phil Morton observes

“That within an hours drive of Manchester there are many musicians from the free improvised music (and associated leaning) who generally do not meet, mix and play on a regular basis: or so it seems. Somehow geography, boundaries keep us apart, where-as in London the same distances either measured in miles /or time travelled doesn’t keep artists apart; i.e. there is more of a mixing up and playing together.

Frakture were pleased, with the responses to the Centrifuge concept, and the first Centrifuge Concert was booked for October 30th, the concert featured musicians from across the region, including Liverpool, Sheffield, Barrow, Buxton and Warrington. On the night they combined in small groupings to deliver a contrasting programme of creative new music. See website to listen to the audio.

Frakture are confident that Centrifuge will become a force pulling together creative artists in the northwest region and provide a rich palette of sounds and music for the listener.

SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT - Plans are in place to have between 4-8 centrifuge gigs during 2009. Next Centrifuge is late March: 

WHO IS IT AIMED AT -  musicians from the free improvised music genre, and associated leaning; electronics, soundart, phonography, voice work,
