Steve Spithray

With vinyl records growing in popularity and indie musicians struggling to get their music pressed, two men from Middlesbrough bring together local and international support for a mad idea: a vinyl press for independent music, based in their home town. But can they make the dream come true? In this warts-and-all tale of resilience, creativity and community, Steve Spithray takes us behind the scenes of the first year in the life of Press On Vinyl.

Steve Spithray shines the light on a quixotic new addition to the North East’s industrial story - the heroic venture in 21st-century record-making that is Middlesbrough’s Press On Vinyl. In sharp, lyrical prose, Spithray goes beyond the weary clichés of modern music writing to celebrate a group of people truly making it new – and pointing to a way out of their hometown’s rumoured decline in the process. This is a truly remarkable and essential book: if Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer don’t read it and take note of its example, we’re all doomed.” Alex Niven, author and journalist
