Welcome to the PENULTIMATE NN Archives. We started this look back at Northamptonshire’s music scene following the first national lockdown of the live music industry due to the coronavirus. With just this edition and April left to go, it’s great to see there’s light at the end of the tunnel regarding the return of live music as this series draws to a close.
For anyone here for the first time, this is a monthly trawl through the thousands of photos David Jackson has taken over the years, mixing national touring acts playing in the county and musicians from the local scene.
March could – and probably should – have been another ‘two-parter’ but in order to get this live just before the end of the month, it’s another mammoth edition.
You can check out May (Part One and Part Two), June (Part Three and Part Four), July (Part Five), August (Part Six), September (Part Seven), October, (Part Eight and Part Nine), November (Part 10), December (Part 11), January (Part 12) and February (Part 13) via the links.
Regular plug as before, go visit https://davidtjackson.com for more content like this from the NN scene and beyond. Most of the content is on the Latest Updates page, but even the gallery page has a selection photos on now!
