Legendary London club fabric is set to celebrate its 25-year anniversary by releasing a 300-page book titled fabric.
Publishing Details
Published by White Rabbit, this book is written by Joe Muggs and features over 100 testimonies from DJs closely associated with the club, as well as fabric staff members. It also includes rare photography and the club’s iconic artwork. The book includes an introduction by Bill Brewster and a foreword by Annie Mac.
Author’s Perspective
Speaking about the book, Joe Muggs expressed, “You know how people say, ‘If these walls could speak…’? Well, after months of interviews, research, and writing, I genuinely felt like those walls deep under Farringdon were sharing their stories of thousands of nights and millions of dancing bodies passing through. fabric is a living entity with a personality all of its own, constantly evolving and serving as a channel for collective consciousness. Immersing myself in a quarter of a century of its history was a glorious experience.”
