Hey folks,
A little update from Strummerville HQ...
Was great to see so many people at our campfires at Glastonbury and Endorse It In Dorset over the summer and thanks to all the great bands and artists who came to play for us. It's been amazing! - click here for photos
Was a great honour to have so many established acts perform on our tiny stage... my own personal highlight can be seen at this link... http://youtu.be/WlcMT0S9Yfc
Also thanks to everyone who supported us by buying merch out in the fields.
Our music room is almost finished at Tilinanu orphanage in Milawi and this will open next month. We will be doing an appeal for any old childrens instruments so we can send out for the space. Also the lovely people at Lake Of Stars festival have welcomed the choir from the orphanage to come and perform at the festival in October which is a great opportunity for them.
We are currently working on plans for a Strummerville space in Detroit so watch this space for news of that...
Thanks to the great team over at Brothers Cider for their kind support over the summer and to everyone who organised benefits for us – we really appreciate your support.
If you are ‘down under’ then there's two very special benefits coming your way in Sydney and Melbourne:
We recently announced a call to action to support the work we do here, all donations are greatly received and really help us to continue our work.
In other news we have been supporting a lot of new bands with recording and releasing records and are delighted to congratulate Bastille and The Joker & the Thief on their recent releases.
And onwards we go with our work here at Strummerville HQ...
Love,
Trish x
