Cheese and Wine Painting Club With Sarah Green Sunflowers at Pocklington Arts Centre 10 May
An Open Letter to the UK Government
We are the owners and operators of the UK's Grassroots Music Venues.
Our Grassroots Music Venues are the fundamental foundations and cornerstone on which our world beating £5.ii billion per twelvemonth music industry has been built for the last 60 years. Without our Grassroots Music Venues, in that location would exist no Beatles. No Stones, no Led Zeppelin, no Duran Duran, no Sade, no Oasis, no Skunk Anansie, no Adele, no Ed Sheeran, no Dua Lipa. Our Grassroots Music Venues are absolutely essential to the whole Britain music industry bouncing back at any time in the future.
Our sector delivers training, rehearsal spaces, recording opportunities and career development to thousands of young people and are essential to our communities. We do not merely support the next generation of world beating artists. Grassroots Music Venues are where people come up together, where they celebrate, where they socialise. Thousands of cultural professionals get their offset taste of working in the creative industries in our venues, including many of those who keep to work in areas other than music. Grassroots Music Venues sit at the very middle of our creative nation.
Public Health advice is clear. Singing is a high-risk activity. Dancing is a high-chance activity. Standing close to other people is a high-take a chance activity. Being in a bars infinite for a long flow is a high-gamble action. These are the iv pillars of the alive music feel nosotros offer in our venues. Coming together with friends and communities to dance and sing with your favourite artists in whatsoever of the 800 grassroots music venues across the Uk is the very core and purpose of why we exist.
Terminal year there were more than than 175,000 events in our venues that gave people the experiences they love and the artists the opportunities they demand. Since twenty March at that place have been no events.
This is because our sector has complied with the Public Wellness guidance. We did the right affair. Nosotros closed to protect our communities. We engaged with the government task force and nosotros explored every option bachelor to reopen safely and bring alive music back. We understand that in society to protect the public, it should non be done until the health guidance changes and we also know that trying to practise it is economic folly which would be financially ruinous; not merely for us but for our entire sector.
It is now time for the regime to do the correct affair.
Nosotros are represented by Music Venue Trust, who have laid out a simple clear program to the government of the support our sector needs to survive the side by side three months (July, August, September) and to recover in the future. It consists of just ii steps.
- A £50 million financial support packet immediately
- A reduction on VAT on future ticket sales, bringing tax in UK Grassroots Music Venues into line with our major international competitors
These measures are simple, quick, constructive and would prevent the closure of hundreds of Grassroots Music Venues. They are the correct thing to do. We are a dynamic, innovative, and inventive sector. Nosotros practise not need permanent government intervention to be. We are not asking to become a permanently subsidised drain on the public purse. We do not need the regime to footstep in and tell us how to run our venues. We need regime to take 2 simple steps and exit u.s.a. to work out how to do the residual.
We need you to do the right matter.
