The Listening Club
in collaboration with Alright Mate?
About this Event
The Listening Club is a new monthly night dedicated to the art of active listening.
Once a month, we gather to listen to a single album, played in full, from start to finish — no interruptions, no background noise, no distractions. The record is announced on the night, creating a shared focal point for the room.
This is not a gig, and not background music. It’s a chance to slow down, log off, and give an album your full attention — together.
Following the listening session, there’s space for gentle conversation, reflection, and discussion for those who wish to stay. No pressure to speak — listening is enough.
The album played will also become our Record of the Month, available in-store after the session.
The Listening Club is presented in partnership with Alright Mate?, a Devon-based arts organisation creating social and creative events that normalise conversations about men’s mental health. alrightmate.org
