Independent Artists. Emerging Bands. Grassroots Labels.
Do you suffer from vinyl disfunction? Are your discs more floppy than compact? Help is at hand.
122 Music Management will be running a pop-up record shop (Table Turners) in Forest Hill (South-East London) from 31 March – 5 April 2026. We would like to sell physical copies of your music and merchandise in-store on your behalf. Forest Hill is a perfect area to set up shop; artistic, without being overly gentrified, with lots of other vibey areas close by such as East Dulwich, Crystal Palace and Peckham.
If you’re an unsigned independent artist, or signed to a small independent label that essentially just presses your records, you’re welcome to take part. We will accept applications from small independent labels who do their bit for artists too. NB. To apply, you MUST have reposted (not liked) the social media post linked at the top of our Insta/Threads/BlueSky profiles. Other than that, you are your own gatekeeper.
We will showcase your music by displaying your artwork prominently and making your music instantly listenable via QR code. We'll use your Bandcamp page for streaming, and we'll need a Bandcamp yum code to create a promotional playlist. We will take up to 5 copies of each format (LP, CD, cassette) of your music as well as your merch (e.g. T‑shirts).
We are also looking for 14 acts from participating artists to play short acoustic sets in the shop on Friday 3 and Saturday 4 April.
To cover venue hire, local promotion, equipment hire and more, there’s a flat fee of £30 (per artist) to take part. If you are a small label, with multiple artists, the fee is £100. We won’t take any commission from your sales. Please note that you will be financially responsible for the delivery and return of your music and merch.
You can sign up here. Once done, we’ll send you a simple agreement confirming these key details, along with more information and payment details. To secure your place, payment is needed by 28 February.
