After months in discussion and following loads of emails, texts, phone calls and conversations we are at last pleased to announce the PLANKTON RECORDS 40th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION GIG.

Plankton’s Keith Dixon explained: “It’s taken us a while to get to this stage but we are pleased to announce the date of SATURDAY NOVEMBER 30th 2018 for our celebration gig.”

“It’s going to be in East London and the venue is 90% confirmed so we’ll be able to share that soon. The evening is going to be a fantastic mix of live music, interviews and video as we look back over the past 40 years. We’ve got some brilliant live music from ECHO, NINE BEATS COLLECTIVE, FRESH CLAIM and MATT JR HURLEY. Founding partner, and Fresh Claim member, Simon Law and myself are talking regularly and planning the evening now everyone’s committed. These artists bring such a wide variety of musical styles and genres to the event – which is great and what we as a label are all about.”

“We are hoping to be posting regular updates, features etc soon across our website and social media so ‘watch this space’ as they say!”

“There’s also something else in planning regarding the 40th anniversary celebrations which is very much in Simon’s hands with regards to the next stage at this moment in time. We are aware that the year is marching on so we need to be moving too! It’s worth it though because after all, you are only 40 once!”

As Keith said, keep a look out for more news and updates!
