This exhibition is inspired by the book Sugar Gravy Pleasure: An Indie Odyssey in Peterborough by Pete Elderkin, co founder of the Sugar Club. It coincides with the release of a documentary of the same name directed by Martin Rowe (former Sugar Club DJ) and co-written with Pete, exploring their shared history at the legendary Peterborough venue.
Bringing the story together, the exhibition also explores the wider decline of music venues since Covid-19 and the lasting impact this is having on city-centre nightlife and the music industry.
