With over five million streams in eighteen months of seasonal releases, tonight begins a big year which opens with next single, ‘Who Needs The Money?’ (Anti Fragile) sounding like an instant classic, again.

MOSES gigs are escapist, uplifting parties with a welcoming community. Bring your voices ( video; with their “choir”, joyfully at the previous London gig.

A song and charisma based line up, then. Special guest is RtN: Rhiannon The Nightmare. A woman in flux discovering herself and her music, RtN was a huge hit at TheZineUK’s fifth anniversary party. You betcha she’s back by return, previewing her debut solo release, and more.

Everything is at ease when you’re being interviewed by the amazing Louise Schofield.” (MOSES)

Last Summer, our interview article remarked that Louise Schofield “fizzes with the essence of an Entertainment Supergrrrrl.” and that “You know you’re probably at the right event, if her friendly energy is helping to light it up.”

Hard working tech and media instigator, via her YouTube channel and Unique Lullaby music blog, Louise has conducted over 200 artist interviews at myriad gigs/festivals. 

She also presents at BBC, National Film Awards (backstage reporting with Idris Elba and Jo Brand), Green Man Festival, Festival No.6 (for BBC Radio Wales), Liverpool Sound City, The Great Escape, Swn Festival) etc.

A writer, comedian and actor who regularly creates content for online channel – BBC SESH… Louise is our host for the evening.

Plot: DIY sociable media + Document x Affordable entry x share income = Real time crowd funding.

Background; Consistent Future Picks radar. Our first Music People Party DJ (Katie Owen, 2017) presented two December 2019 shows on Radio 1. The Velvet Hands, who played live that year, supported Liam Gallagher (who recommends another of our contributors, journalist Susan Hansen) and Paul Weller in 2019. We recommend potential.

Magick: This venue has the words HOPE and ANCHOR. Zeenager themes.

Likened to “the London CBGBs”, this basement is a mecca for music fans. 

Home to Joy Division’s London debut and Keane’s first gig, alumni include Stiff Records, The Damned, X-Ray Spex, The Specials, The Clash, Steel Pulse, The Cure, The Jam, Madness, Adam And The Ants, The Pogues, The Only Ones, Squeeze, The Police, XTC, Ramones (plus that infamous two men, one dog, U2 gig!)

Some cool past picks there

We also live for NOW. 

… and really do MEAN Future Picks!

Get involved with the artists. Look out for what we create this evening, coming soon. On the outside, looking out, TheZineUK is a fertile environment influenced by Talent and Potential.
