A Blue Note vibe: The Iconic label’s Pop-Up Store Returns to London this week

Legendary jazz label Blue Note Records will once again open a pop-up store at Coal Drops Yard in Kings Cross to coincide with the start of the EFG London Jazz Festival, which celebrates its 30th birthday this year. The store will be open for one week only from 11 November and will sell an array of limited-edition vinyl and merchandise, books, DVDs & CDs.

Rising Blue Note star Joel Ross will be signing copies of his latest Blue Note album, The Parable of the Poet, in store at 4.30pm on 14 November. Ross will be performing that night at Lafayette, London for a special gig presented by Ronnie Scott's.

The store will open on the same day as the release of Bill Frisell’s upcoming album Four, with signed copies available to purchase along with signed copies of fellow Blue Note artist Immanuel Wilkins’ acclaimed album The 7th Hand. A preview and first listen of Donald Byrd’s Live: Cookin' with Blue Note at Montreux, which is out later in the year, will take place at various times throughout each day. 

Additional events at the store will be announced across the week including exclusive screenings, album playbacks, talks from Blue Note artists and discussion panels.

The Blue Note Pop-Up Store opens 11th November and will remain open until 19th November.
