PAYF JUST TURN UP
Hello all! Theo here bringing you the 32nd and final episode of ‘things i’ve been up to’. After over three years ‘things i’ve been up to’ will be finishing at the end of this year. Next Monday is your last opportunities to enjoy the fruits of the beautiful scene that has grown around this space.
‘things i’ve been up to’ (https://www.instagram.com/things.ive.been.up.to/ ) is a monthly, community-based event taking place on the first Monday of every month in the intimate Snug space at Hyde Park Book Club. It is an opportunity for songwriters, poets and musicians to share and experiment with new material in a safe and supportive space.
Headlining this episode of ‘things i’ve been up to’ will be Lizzie Walmsley.
Hailing from Liverpool, Lizzie Walmsley is a 25 year-old songwriter taking inspiration from artists like Soccor Mommy and Elliott Smith. Lizzie is known for her honest and direct lyricism and with her songs being written on her bedroom floor, it’s hard to ignore the comforting feeling her writing gives you.
After the headline performance, I'll give you all a chance to grab another drink and some fresh city air. Then I will open up the rest of the evening for all the artists who want to share what you've 'been up to'. Come see me (Theo) on the door if you want to perform and I'll put your name down on the list. It is a first come first served vibe so get down early if you don't want to miss out on the chance of playing. The list is usually full by 8pm!
I want to give a big shoutout to the amazing Hugh Roberts (@misc.etc) for creating another incredible poster and furthering the visual concepts for 'things i've been up to'.
This event operates on a PAY AS YOU FEEL basis! While all are welcome regardless of financial contribution, to ensure the sustainability of this non-profit, community-based event and to fairly compensate Lizzie Walmsley and Hugh for their invaluable artistic contributions, I recommend a contribution of £5. Your support enables me to continue providing opportunities for everyone to participate in and attend these events. Analog money is preferred, but I will also have a card reader on hand!
See you on December 2nd x
