The social distancing is part of the show so guests won’t notice it. We want to give Londoners something to book now and to look forward to.“
Entering the hidden tunnels of the One Night Records experience, an unexpected immersive journey awaits, leading through a melodic maze right into the heart and soul of music. From Rock & Roll, Blues, Ragtime, Jazz and everything in between, One Night Records is a unique time machine, a celebration of music and music makers, and London’s escape from lockdown.
One Night Records is an immersive gig, transporting the audience back to six ground-breaking concert experiences, featuring songs from music’s great, alongside original material performed by a rotating roster of exceptional new talent. The first artists joining the ever-evolving line up include Errol Linton, Dom Pipkin, Georgia Van Etten and The Cinelli Brothers.

Talking about the musical ambitions behind One Night Records, Tommy Hare, Head of Artists and Repertoire at One Night Records, says: “One Night Records is like a living record shop where, in 2020, audiences will revel amidst the hits of Chuck Berry, Jelly Roll Morton Hank Williams, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong and Scott Joplin. You’ll find gems you’ve never heard before and also see and hear the hits and legends of the future. If the late, great Chuck Berry was right about the rocking pneumonia, then a shot of Rhythm & Blues is the only cure… and we’re opening the dispensary here in London, so come and get your fix!”
