A Stoke Newington photographer spent the second lockdown taking photographs of London music venues to raise awareness of an ongoing campaign to save them.
Alex Amoros 40 Music Venues project showcases closed venues in London, many of which are located in Hackney, Islington and Camden.
He hopes his photographs help visualise the plight of much-loved and visited haunts and bolster a campaign by charity Music Venues Trust (MVT) to Save Our Venues.
The photographer told the
Gazette: I think if we lose some of these venues, we are going to lose a part of London. We need to fight to keep them alive .
