Press Play: George Michael 'Faith'
About this Event
For the next edition of the Press Play series, Shrem delves into one of the most iconic records not just of the 1980s, but in the entire canon of pop music: George Michael’s legendary solo debut, “Faith”.
Fresh off the explosive global success of Wham!, George Michael released his hotly anticipated first solo album in 1987 - a record that instantly became a worldwide phenomenon. “Faith” smashed sales records, dominated airwaves, and evolved into a bona fide hit factory, spawning seven singles, including four Billboard Hot 100 Number Ones: “Faith”, “Father Figure”, “One More Try”, and “Monkey”.
Across its sleek nine-track runtime, “Faith” effortlessly fuses pop, funk, soul, R&B, and dance music into a record that still feels bold, seductive, and timeless nearly four decades later. Beloved by fans and critics alike, it has earned its place on countless “greatest albums of all time” lists - and for good reason.
Experience the album exactly as it was meant to be heard: loud, rich and immersive on the HiFi Hatchett Sound System. This front-to-back mid-week vinyl listening session is designed to pull you deep inside the album - a chance to relive the magic, bask in the nostalgia, and honour the genius of George Michael alongside fellow devotees and pop obsessives alike.
The night also features a special two-part vinyl set curated exclusively for the occasion: a deep dive into George Michael’s solo work and Wham! catalogue, alongside collaborations, remixes, B-sides, fan favourites, deep cuts, and rare gems - a wide-ranging celebration of one of pop’s most beloved and influential artists.
With just 40 tickets available due to the intimate nature of the space, early booking is highly recommended.
