Friends of rush skatepark fundraiser

Katy j pearson & special guests smith + Burrows & EDITH BOWMAN

---

Friends of Rush charity has existed since the dearly loved Rush Skatepark at Brimscombe Port closed in August 2021. They are all about opening the new Rush Skatepark in the Stroud District which will be an indoor supersized skatepark for BMX Freestyle, Skateboard, Scooter and Inline Skating but they need your help...

They're currently raising funds to pay for their planning application and want you to enjoy yourself while helping them to do so. With this in mind they have the fantastic Katy J Pearson and very special guests Smith + Burrows; a duo of Tom Smith of the Editors and Andy Burrows of Razorlight, joining her live on The Sub Rooms stage, along with a DJ set from the iconic Edith Bowman. 

Katy J Pearson’s latest album Sound of the Morning was the Number 1 independent album after picking up massive support from the best indie shops across the UK. In the press, it was praised as “captivating” (The Guardian, 4*), “a sweet elixir” (NME, 4*) and “a record that contains a whole heap of guts” (Hotpress, 9/10).

Produced by Dan Carey (Fontaines DC, Black Midi, Wet Leg) and Ali Chant (PJ Harvey, Gruff Rhys) and featuring guest vocals from Orlando Weeks, it is a universal sound that suits every hour of the day, wherever it is played.
