Bucks and the Roundhouse partner for first collaborative showcase

15 May 2017 - Press release

Independent publisher Bucks Music Group has partnered with London’s Roundhouse for a special collaborative showcase next month.

It will the first time the two companies have combined for a live event, taking place on June 22nd in the Roundhouse’s Sackler Space.
The showcase will be headlined by Manchester born singer Findlay, who caught the attention of music fans worldwide in 2015 with her single Electric Bones. It hit No.2 on Spotify’s US Viral Chart and reached No.15 globally. Findlay gained a similarly international platform with track Off & On after it was used in the ground-breaking global TV campaign for BMW’s 2 Series.  Her new album, Forgotten Pleasures is out now, with the announcement of her next single Monomania in the pipeline via BMG.
She will be supported at the Roundhouse by fellow Bucks artists Dom McAllister and Tay Salem. They’ll also be joined on the bill by one of the Roundhouse’s resident artist Joss Ryan.

Bucks Music Group Director A&R Sarah Liversedge Platz said: “Bucks Music Group moved its offices to the Roundhouse site just over a year ago. Having the venue and the Roundhouse team on our doorstep is extremely exciting and an absolute privilege. As a result, we are very naturally exploring creative synergies between our organisations and this event is a great example of what a charitable organisation and a commercial publisher can achieve together.
“The Roundhouse itself is a very special space, but the team behind it are just as crucial when it comes to grass roots music in the UK because of their commitment to supporting young artists – something we’ve always endeavoured to do at Bucks as well. We hope this is the first of many such events at the Roundhouse.”
Roundhouse Head of Music, Jane Beese said: “Having Bucks Music Group as our neighbours is a really exciting opportunity for the two organisations to work together to platform emerging musicians and our shared ethos for developing talent brings us even closer. Roundhouse Rising is such an important festival for us that we’ve been building over the last eight years and the new Rising Presents nights mean we can bring new music to gig goers more regularly.”
One of the UK’s most iconic venues, having hosted the biggest names and events in music throughout its history, London’s Roundhouse is also a charitable organisation and a creative hub that champions young, emerging talent through the annual Roundhouse Rising Festival and monthly Rising presents nights
