PRIORY STREET BLUES is a forthcoming new downloadable Coventry music magazine. More details will emerge here as things are set up. It comes out of the work of setting up a Coventry music archive on Vox around my former Cov magazine HOBO which was operative in the 1970's. Much of that site is more or les complete now and increasingly we are engaging with some of the great new Coventry artists. The new magazine, PRIORY STREET BLUES will focus on Coventry music NOW and the HOBO archives will still be there to view and respond to with your memories and information etc. As so many new Cov artists are linked on this site - I'm slowly converting it over to serve the new magazine while maintaining links to the HOBO over on Vox (if you haven't seen it - get on over there and have a look).
PRIORY STREET BLUES (Click this link to go to the VOX site) now has a place on VOX too and the link will be in the band link on here. We are also establishing a home site for the the magazine download on a PDF file. The Vox will promote the magazine and carry additional information and videos etc. Hopefully there will be articles and features by some of the former editors of Coventry magazines as well as from some of the currently active musicans in Coventry. We hope to cover all styles of Coventry music plugged and unplugged, venues and other events and happenings. Some bands and venues etc have asked about advertising in the magazine and we are working all this out at the moment. The magazine will however be free to download so that it reaches a wider audience and helps promote all the great music that's coming out of the city these days. More later though.. Coming soon..and keep us informed.
HOBO MUSIC AND ARTS MAGAZINE was an alternative Coventry Music Magazine in the early to mid 70's run by Trev Teasdel in the period before Two Tone. It led to the creation of the Hobo Workshop - a weekly gig and workshop to encourage local bands in Coventry based at the Holyhead Youth Centre and later the Golden Cross
If you are a Coventry band or artist / venue past or present, link to us here and get on over to Hobo on Vox HERE and join in with other Cov musicians, send us info and other material on your band, add comments and info to the blogs and find links to many other Coventry music sites. The Hobo site and others are being used by the Herbert Museum to research the creation of a Coventry Music Exhibition and museum feature.
