” The Hoo Ha Record Club will be making a guest appearance in the Old Gallery at LCB with the theme of Art and Pop to celebrate the launch of three artist showcases in LCB’s meeting rooms. Kate Jackson, Alison Carpenter-Hughes and Steve Sadler were all awarded the LCB Showcase Prize and will be showing work at LCB throughout 2020. So get your art rock, noise rock, factory pop and screen printed bots out and bring your records down.

Times are a little different to the usual event, starting at 5pm and ending at 9pm but the format remains the same : 12 DJs, 20 minutes each on the theme of art and music. No DJ experience necessary, anyone can sign up to play and help will be on hand on the night. Vinyl, CD or MP3.

If you fancy spinning some tunes, sign up on Facebook and we’ll pick 12 names from a hat. A second draw will take place on the day to determine time slots. “
