Purple Static: The Life of Jimi Hendrix

Wrap up the work week with a bit of Jimi Hendrix and hear the legendary musician the way he was meant to be heard: on vinyl. Purple Static: The Life of Jimi Hendrix is an intimate listening session co-curated by Rupert England of Vinyl Saved My Life and singer-songwriter Dru Chen. It’s a soulful celebration of one of rock’s most influential guitarists, whose groundbreaking experimentation with distortion, feedback and effects pedals has changed the sound of modern music.

In this guided listening session, move through Hendrix’s psychedelic, blues-soaked catalogue and explore his life stories and discoveries. Expect to revisit essential classics like “Purple Haze” and “Voodoo Child (Slight Return)”, alongside lesser-known deep cuts on the turntable.

The session is held at 194 Joo Chiat Road, with the needle dropping at 8pm. Make sure to come early to grab a spot.
