According to the Music Venue Trust, over 550 grassroots venues in the UK face the very
real threat of permanent closure in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic. The knock on
effects, culturally, are hard to imagine.
So how are venues up and down the country coping and responding to the situation. How
bad is it? What can we do? And how might the loss of grassroots music venues affect the
wider industry and the very fabric of our culture?
Skiddle’s head of content David Blake is joined by the Music Venue Trust CEO, Mark
Davyd; the owner of the famous Brudenell Social Club in Leeds, Nathan Clark, and Toni
Coe-Brooker, production and programming manager at the Green Door Store in Brighton.
