50rpm Fundraiser

50rpm is a not-for-profit music community based in Coatbridge, Scotland, set up to bring live music to the town.

Grassroots music venues like ours are the very lifeblood of the industry. They are the foundatios that the future of the live music industry is built upon. The likes of Live nation / Ticketmaster don't develope acts. They don't encourage the future generations. They profit form our dedication and put nothing back.

Over the years we have invested in buying the best equipment we can afford so that both the acts and audiences get the best sound but as our equipment ages and needs repaired, we find ourselves unable to afford to replace and repair it. This fundraising night is to hopefully allow us to be able to do this and secure the future of 50rpm.

Performing at the fundraiser is local legend JJ Gilmour (formerly of The Silencers), the fantastic Ewan MacFarlane (Grim Northern Social / Apollo 440) & the outstanding songwriter & poet Sulidae. We will be announcing more acts over the next few weeks.

Some people have let us know that they are unable to attend but would like to support us so we have set up a Go Fund Me page where all donations will be gratefully received: link here
