Our Musical Director joined @dj_devolicious and Stuart from Broken Chords, alongside Hayley Kay, at @bbclancashire to talk about the Good Grief Festival, happening across Blackpool over the next two weeks.

Electric Pink Voices feel incredibly privileged to be singing following Haley’s interview with Basil Newby, reflecting on love and loss through his career, including the era of the AIDS epidemic.

For our choir, this is a powerful and historic moment in Blackpool, connecting music, memory, love, loss and the stories of LGBTQ+ people and our community.

We’ll be singing Daddy’s Eyes, beautifully arranged for us by @jamsheedmaster.music . We’re so grateful to him for arranging this piece and helping us bring this song into the story.

It’s going to be an extraordinary and deeply moving moment for EPV.

Check out @goodgriefbpl to find out more and book your place. Donations from the festival go to Trinity Hospice.

when i announced i was doing some gigs in libraries this summer a good friend of mine reached out to say that performing popular music in a library is a radical act. he spoke to me about the role that literacy has played in forging a path forward for working class people, and i was reminded about what my local library had done for me as a place i used to escape to, building up a relationship with language that would last me for life

after the gig i did in Blackpool Library, a woman there said to me that libraries are one of the last true democratic spaces in society and i think that’s true. a library is a public place with WiFi where you can walk in without having to spend money. it’s a place that’s cool in the summer and warm in the winter where you can sit unbothered, read, work or borrow books and music for free. so it’s important that we fight to defend these spaces and do things to keep them relevant. i have huge admiration for the work @loudinlibraries do and i very much look forward to being involved in more ⭐️

MURKAGE DAVE // Blackpool Central Library // 26.07.2026

This was a gig for the books; artists, audience and our young gig crew all came together for a JOYOUS afternoon at Blackpool Central Library with @murkagedave and @dj_devolicious . It was more than music, it was a celebration of what libraries can do; culture, community, creativity colliding to make magic under one book lined roof📚🫶🎸

We include Dave’s moving words on the day below because honestly we couldn’t put it better!

“I forgot how important the library was to me when I was growing up; it was a safe space where I could go, I could get away from school, I could get away from home. You could take out any books and you could max out your card and I could just read and go into my own world. I think that’s where actually a lot of this thing that I have with language started, Cathall Estate library. A friend of mine said performing popular music in a library is radical political act; I’d never thought about it, now its really clicking with me, because literacy is the way of the people being able to move forward; we’ve got these places that are free in every community and we can go here and we can do stuff, even in modern day, the libraries have saved me in the heatwave, I just want to say thank you to Get It Loud in Libraries for putting these events on, for keeping libraries relevant because we need them and there’s people that make the most of it, journeys begin, your path to wherever you’re going can start from literacy in your community.”

Thank you Blackpool for one seriously special Sunday 🌱✨

See you soon 😎
