Coventry’s beloved grassroots music venue, The Tin, has smashed its £10,000 fundraising goal to refurbish its frontage thanks to an incredible community effort and a sizeable donation from John Willcox. A champion of the city’s music scene, John credits venues like The Tin for launching his career.

This year my music got 96,000 streams on Spotify and had 46,000 listeners and I made… $185.61. Total. This is indefensible. Truly an evil company. I totally get why people enjoy using Spotify, but if you want to support musicians, please consider buying our stuff on Bandcamp once in awhile. 💚
