Speakeasy with author and journalist Simon Parker

Wednesday 1 February 2023
6-8pm
The Writers’ Block, The Ladder, 2-4 Clinton, Redruth, TR15 Q2E

This session is introduced by Simon Parker. Simon’s book PZ77 is a study – initially as a book – of youth and music in late 1970s Penzance. By collating personal accounts from eighty-plus participants, the project examines how the experience of seeing major bands play live at the town’s Winter Gardens influenced a drive to make music, and how the lasting effect of the era shaped a large group of teenagers’ thinking: personally, politically, artistically.

Do you want your ears tickled? Then this is the place to satisfy the need. Have a good listen and discover what else is out there.
