Club60 Presents…

..a leap year spectacular starring—
Unsung National Heroes, sieben & Pip Moujntjoy
at the Greystones, Sheffield.

Celebrating the release of the debut Unsung National Heroes album (available here), recorded at our gaff, we’re promoting a night at one of Sheffield’s best live venues. It’s also a blinding pub with great ales.

Pip Mountjoy

Starting the evening off is singer/songwriter Pip Mountjoy.  A 17 year old hailing from Richmond, North Yorkshire this girl can sing!  Currently part of the BBC Introducing campaign we recommend you take this opportunity to witness something special.

sieben

Next off we will showcase the mighty sieben. Matt Howden appears on the Unsung National Heroes album and is a well known friend with Cowling Wolf. His latest album “No Less Than All” has just been released and we love his work. If you have never witnessed a live sieben show then we can only but recommend – it’s breathtaking. Taking it to another level!

Unsung National Heroes

Tonight’s closing act are a very special, new favourite. 2011 saw the birth, realisation and recording of this band – a testament to all involved. Featuring great crafted songs, played eloquently and with vigour, this band are set to rock 2012. Their debut album was recorded at Club60 and we feel this is going to be one hell of show. Don’t miss it! You can buy the album here.

Wednesday 29 February 2012.
Doors 7:30pm and it’s £5 tickets/£6 on the door.

Sloucher voucher

We like Sloucher. They get it! They’ve vouched for us again this week with two reviews: one of the Singles Club launch & a mind-blowing review of the release itself!

‘The launch of Club60‘s singles club felt like a double celebration: the re-opening of Shakespeare‘s and the launch of a local label that pursues the creation of music through analogue media.’

Read their review of the Club60 Singles Club launch night here.

‘The city that now shows how its heart pounds and rises its voice is Sheffield, and its statement comes stringed with four hearts better known as The Don Genes, oblONG, Black Cat White Cat and Michael Eden, and the word that touched my mind after listening to this mini compilation is: Freedom.’

All the world’s a stage…

Sloucher blog spreads the love…

Music & arts blog Sloucher have written a great review (with pics) of our Singles Club promotional night…

“After a few years of effort, Club 60 is now releasing a series of singles, starting with two 7″ vinyls. The aim of the label is to put some Sheffield acts on the limelight… That’s all well and good. So was the gig organised to give a little taste of what the musicians featured in these upcoming singles have up their sleeves.”
