FROM THE TEAM Welcome to another edition of our magazine - our first of 2022 and incredibly, our 18th! Here in the UK we seem to be almost without any COVID restrictions but it’s been another very difficult period for many musicians we work with. At the time of writing, Help Musicians have just reopened a new round of their Emergency funding which is great - but so much more is needed so please do buy music/tickets/ merch and do what you can to support independent musicians. Despite several digital singles and a couple of
compilation albums that we’re incredibly proud of, 2021 was our quietest year for a long time 7” singlewise! We’re putting that right though with a couple of singles lined up early this year with the first being a split release with Elephant Arch Records featuring two brilliant Yorkshire bands Green Gardens (Leeds) and Oh Papa (Sheffield). We’ve got a bunch of live activity planned again this year - thanks to some repeat funding from Arts Council for our Come Platform Me project - that started with our I Know A Place Afterparty featuring Pleasure Centre and
FIKA on 28th Jan at the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds. It’s another hook-up with those brilliant folks of Independent Venue Week and follows our panel and workshop event of the same name earlier in the day. The team at CPWM has expanded - in the last couple of months we’ve welcomed Elle, Sadie and Matilde to the team, joining Eva, Toni, Scott, Lily, Andy & Tony. So holler if we can help with anything... Sending love to everyone except that fraud in No. 10. Has he gone yet….?? Tony
