Firmly Rooted Soundsystem
The series opens on Saturday 18 Oct, one of Bristol’s most vital contemporary bands, SCALER celebrate the release of their new album Endlessly with a special ‘In Conversation’ event. This will include an album playback on the Firmly Rooted Soundsystem, a track-by-track discussion, and a Q&A hosted by Alastair Shuttleworth (BBC, Guardian, Pitchfork) all based around the importance of community and collaboration.
Join us in Fyfe Hall, reimagined as a sonic lounge with warm lighting, seating, and space for dialogue. Together we’ll listen, reflect, and connect.
"Archival Sounds is about reframing how we experience music, not just as entertainment, but as cultural memory. Each vinyl carries stories of struggle, resilience, and connection. We wanted to create a space where audiences can slow down, really listen, and discover the politics embedded in sound." - Jamell Ackford, Director of Culture, Trinity
