Back to Black - Amy Launch Night

BACK TO BLACK

To celebrate the launch of Amy we invite you to the Showroom bar for a night of music and dancing. Girl Gang DJ Vanhessa will soundtrack the night with jazz, soul, motown and the female voices that made musical history. Along with plenty of Amy, of course.

Join us on 3 July to see Amy, the incredible new documentary on the life and career of one of the most famous and troubled singers of recent times. Documenting the early years and subsequent life of Amy Winehouse, filmmaker Asif Kapadia has created a film that is 'stunningly moving and powerful: intimate, passionate, often shocking, and almost mesmerically absorbing.' (Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian)

Flick your eyeliner, put on your heels and join us in celebrating not just Amy but the music that inspired her and the female voices that have been blazing a trail since the 1940's.

AMY

From BAFTA award-winning director Asif Kapadia (SENNA), AMY tells the incredible story of six-time Grammy-winner Amy Winehouse - in her own words.

Featuring extensive unseen archive footage and previously unheard tracks, this strikingly modern, moving and vital film shines a light on the world we live in, in a way that very few can.

A once-in-a-generation talent, Amy Winehouse was a musician that captured the world's attention. A pure jazz artist in the most authentic sense - she wrote and sung from the heart using her musical gifts to analyse her own problems. The combination of her raw honesty and supreme talent resulted in some of the most unique and adored songs of the modern era.

 Her huge success, however, resulted in relentless and invasive media attention which coupled with Amy’s troubled relationships and precarious lifestyle saw her life tragically begin to unravel.

Amy Winehouse died from alcohol poisoning in July 2011 at the age of 27.
