Dave Rowntree, the drummer of Blur, will host a spoken word evening at Bristol Folk House on 15 November 2026. The event will focus on his early experiences with the band and the release of his book featuring photographs from that time.
Doors 18:30 Show 19:30 An evening with Dave Rowntree: Dave Rowntree is the drummer of Blur, and we welcome you to an evening spent with him and the stories from his time with the band. In particular around the early years in which he took a camera with him and documented those travels. They have recently been released as a book and Dave wants to tell you all about it. No One You Know: Dave Rowntree's Early Blur Photos reveals the drummer's view of the band's formative years and rise through the lens of his Olympus OM-10, portraying the Britpop legends of Rowntree alongside Damon Albarn , Graham Coxon and Alex James in all of the "excitement of a young band in their infancy, becoming a global concern" - showing a candid portrait of them behind the scenes and in their down time
