Gaffer Records celebrate their 10th anniversary with a tour that kicks off on may 6th in London before taking in Amsterdam, Oslo, Berlin, Geneva and Paris. Created by Sheik Anorak in order to release SoCRaTeS first CD, Gaffer Records was then initially hardcore/punk oriented, but the artistic directions slowly changed and the label is now one of the most influent and interesting improv/ experimental in Europe, having put out releases by the likes of Mats Gustafsson, Weasel Walter, Jazkamer, Dead Neanderthals, Predicate, Will Guthrie and MoHa!. For the Gaffer anniversary tour, French free improv / noise duo LOUP (featuring Gaffer Records founder Sheik Anorak) will play 6 dates alongside bands and artists relating to the label.

Here’s the schedule below, some FB events will be created for every gig with more info.
