Crown Lane Studio Launch Night
Philip Merriman headed up the resisdent band for Crown Lane Studio’s Launch Night on Friday 7th September. It was a fantastic night, with over a 100 specially invited guests to witness the grand opening and some of the local talent (featuring saxophonist Tim Boniface, and beat box artist Zani). Philip Merriman records using the studios, and has recently been in for some sessions… so watch this space.
