"Articles in Sound" Launch

Feature by AndyHoldcroft, 01 Aug 2016


Saturday 30th July 2016 witnessed the long awaited "Articles in Sound" project launch at Coventry Music Museum. This story of Coventry & Warwickshire music, told across five media (a book, a film, a website, an app & a mural) funded by the Heritage Lottery scheme, offers unique insights into artists, their music, venues and other artefacts. The Museum was thronged with a variety of musicians & music fans eager to buy books, view the film & meet members of the teams who created them. Notable guests included Horace Panter of The Specials & many other bands who play locally such as Blues 2 Go & Honky Tonk Rose, Dave Gee of legendary Leamington band The Shapes, the equally legendary Dill from cult band Gods Toys, Grammy award winning producer Roger Lomas & Coventry & Warwickshire favourite Danny Ansell with members of his family. The book is available from the Museum for £5, the App is free from The App Store & Playstore and the website for the project is www.articlesinsound.com
