Have you ever wondered why there are no music groups that are like reading groups? Us too! That’s why Music Geek Monthly meets at the Ladywell Gallery to discuss classic albums and new releases.
For the Brockley Max festival, we’ll be running a summer special, with music inspired by festivals, barbecues and sunshine. Come and chat about the month’s new releases and choose a favourite summer album to talk about with the group.
