Join Chris Sullivan and Stephen Colegrave as they discuss the origins, the 70s explosion and lasting impact of Punk on music and culture.About this Event
Punk: The Last Word is a powerful reimagining of punk-not just as a sound or style, but as a radical, DIY philosophy rooted in defiance, truth, and individuality.Chris Sullivan and Stephen Colegrave bring together over 150 original interviews with punk's most iconic figures-Iggy Pop, The Sex Pistols, The Clash, Siouxsie Sioux, Vivienne Westwood, and many others.Tracing punk's rebellious spirit from 19th-century bohemia to the explosion of Kings Road and Coventry in the late '70s, this is, without a doubt, the most in-depth, insider account of punk's evolution and legacy.As the movement approaches its 50th anniversary, its core values-authenticity, resistance, and creative freedom-feel more urgent than ever. Punk isn't just music. It's a way of life.
This is an author talk followed by a Q&A. Books will be on sale on the night and the authors will be happy to sign them.
