JUST ROCK PR opening its Japan infrastructure to assist basic booking, van/driver/interpreter, accommodations, discounted flights, poster printing/distro

Just Rock PR is going to be opening up its Japan infrastructure on a more piecemeal basis for use by labels who may have publicity or distribution aspects covered elsewhere, so I wanted to advise you of this for any artists planning to tour that market in the near future.

Basically this would mean that we can assist with basic booking operations, van/driver/interpreter needs, accommodations hook-ups, discounted flight reservations, poster printing/distro, etc., without the previous requirement of full promotions in conjunction.

We hope this will serve to complement the label’s own endeavors when opening this market for your artists and releases, and also provide a support structure which can be passed on to any bands on your roster who may wish to expand their own touring with the “help” of the label.

Let me know if any such plans are currently in discussion, and we can look at availability for you accordingly. Otherwise, keep us on file for anything that may arise down the road, and we’ll be here when the time comes.
Cheers,

UK Music Sector Forum meet up

A Message from our man Peter Jenkinson at Music Sector Forum:

I was hoping to arrange a UK Music Sector Forum meeting so we can all catch up.

There is a good option at Liverpool Sound City – May 20th – 23rd where Dave Pichilingi has offered to host (22nd best for me), there is also Go North, Inverness 11-12 June and Doncaster Music Week (20th – 27th of March) and Great Escape, Brighton (14,15,16th May)

Please can you let me know if you plan to attend any of these events, or will be up for coming to Liverpool for a get together in May.

COLOUR BRING AUTHENTIC BLUES TO BIRMINGHAM, Charlie Parr + Support, Tuesday 24 February, 8:30pm, The Victoria, John Bright Street, Birmingham

COLOUR Presents: Charlie Parr + Support
Tuesday 24 February, 8:30pm
The Victoria, John Bright Street, Birmingham
COST: ?4

On Tuesday 24th February, Colour will host their first live music event in Birmingham, following on from several years of success in Wolverhampton. Headlining the event will be renowned Minnesota folk-blues artist Charlie Parr. It will take place at The Victoria, a recently refurbished Victorian pub at the heart of the city centre.

Charlie Parr

Charlie has toured the UK several times before, astounding audiences with his contemporary take on American musical tradition. His rousing, heartfelt songs speak plainly of the darker places ordinary folks often lose themselves and of the hope that gets them through.

Lawrence Matkin of The Irish Times said:

“This is music that pulses and breathes, rhythms that sway heavy and deep, like fruit swung low on an autumnal tree; music that utterly captures the America of shunting trains and rolling plains, of home-made hooch and
Piedmont blues.”

Charlie counts among his fans Alan Sparhawk of Low and comics legend and aficionado of the blues, R. Crumb. He is touring in support of his new album Roustabout, which is released on 17 February on Misplaced Music.

Colour

As well as stunning live music, the event will also feature Colour’s distinctive hosting style, with projected vintage slides, homemade cakes and DJ sets featuring folk, Americana and leftfield indie new and old.
