Secret 7" is a competition that ran a few months back by Talentcircle in conjuction with Teenage Cancer Trust to design artwork for a single track by seven different music artists including The Cure, Florence and the Machine and DJ Shadow. Artwork was selected by each band and have been made into around x700 limited edition sleeves for the vinyl tracks. The artwork will be exhibited from Wednesday 18th to Sunday 22nd April at the Idea Generation Gallery in Shoreditch, London and on Record Store Day (Saturday 21st) each vinyl will be available to purchase for a minimum of £40, all of which will go to Teenage Cancer Trust.
This submission was made by Edge artist and Illustrator Emma Carpendale and was one of the pieces chosen by the band to be created as a limited edition cover for their single. Due to the 'Secret' nature of the exhibition, the music artist and single is not known until you purchase the vinyl and look inside. We will reveal which band Emma designed this artwork for on Saturday when all the vinyls go on sale to the public.
The Gallery opens between 10-6pm and make sure you get there early Saturday if you want to see all the artwork before the records start flying off the shelves!
