Beyond the Bassline Exhibition

Inspire are delighted to be hosting a taster of the Beyond the Bassline exhibition currently on show at the British Library in London. The exhibition shines a spotlight on different voices and perspectives to celebrate Black British music as a form of entertainment and vehicle for community, as well as a source of liberation, protest and education.

Stepping into carnivals, clubs and record shops across the country, Beyond the Bassline draws on different places that have cultivated creative expression and inspired a number of Black British music genres.

Whilst on show at Nottinghamshire Archives enjoy seeing items from our own collection that highlight Nottinghamshire’s history linked to the Beyond the Bassline themes.
