Secret 7” has revealed the headline sleeve designers for this year’s vinyl exhibition, for which all proceeds go to Amnesty International.
The exhibition will be held at Secret 7’’s new home in Shoreditch, Sonos Studio, from 8 April to 1 May. After that, the records will go on sale. Each one will cost £50 each, but the buyer won’t know who the record is by, or who designed the sleeve until they have parted with their cash, hence, ‘secret’ 7”.
All profits from the sales will go to Amnesty International UK, this year’s charity beneficiary.
