Blog 62: BEGIN HERE
In the middle of this month, I will be having an art exhibition as part of a festival
dedicated to the band The Zombies - the ‘Begin Here Festival’ in St. Albans.
‘Begin Here’ was the title of their debut album, released in April 1965 on Decca
Records. In the USA the (slightly altered) album was called The Zombies.
St. Albans in Hertfordshire, UK, has played such a major part in all the band
members’ lives. All of them went to school here, there have been births, deaths and
marriages here and now the city is honouring them with an exhibit at the museum.
The (hopefully fabulously sunny) weekend includes a Q&A’s and plenty of chances to
meet and listen to all of the different members of The Zombies and explore their old
haunts.
Terry Quirk’s and my own artwork will be exhibited throughout at the Collective
Gallery and Art Project Space right bang in the middle of everything up Holywell
Hill and there will be a merchandise stall in the marketplace.
It is going to be so great to see them all in the same place, to remember those that
are no longer with us and celebrate the legacy that the band continue to make.
