We’ve got a three month membership to the Rough Trade Singles Club to give away today to one of our lovely readers. The winner will be sent mp3s of six of the best tracks of the week each Friday to make sure they’ve got their finger on the pulse.
Rough Trade have been selling records since 1976, and they know a thing or two about independent music – they spawned Rough Trade Records in 1978, home of The Smiths and The Libertines amongst many others. This means that whilst the tracks that arrive in your inbox each week may be from artists big or small, and could be from pretty much any genre (excluding classical), the tracks are always a happy surprise. You already read music blogs, and this is just one more way for you to unearth those hidden musical gems, and with absolutely no effort.
The prize is offered thanks to the fine folks at www.eventim.co.uk – yes the very same people that have rebranded the Hammersmith Apollo.
To enter all you need to do is like us and our big brother the Descrier on Facebook, and follow @thebluewalrus and @descrier on twitter. And there are bonus entries for telling us about your favourite record released that week – all of which you can do from the widget below:
