Bring Your Own Vinyl Night Friday 1st December 2017

The next Bring Your Own Vinyl Night will take place on Friday 
1st December 2017 at the Queens Head Pub Mold, 8pm till late. 
The idea is that people can bring their own vinyl along on the night and then have a session on the decks playing whatever they choose from any genre or era. It is also our 4th Birthday!
This is a great way to socialise with other individuals passionate about music and to discover new artists you didn't know existed. I will be on hand to help individuals who have not used a DJ set up before. We will again be recording the night so you can listen again at your leisure on our new Mixcloud page.
