CLAIR UK

CLAIR UK CLAIR UK is the British office of the leading international live sound services company, CLAIR GLOBA
(12)

On February 11 2013, ConcertSound Clair changes its trading name to Clair UK and begins the latest chapter of its illustrious life as one of Britain’s first-generation live audio service companies. Founded in 1977 as Concert Sound Limited, the firm evolved from the break-up of Welsh rock band, Man, whose team included manager Barrie Marshall, agent Tim Boyle from the Arthur Howes Agency, tour mana

ger David ‘Tag’ Hall and road crew Jeff Hooper and Robert Collins. At Boyle’s suggestion, Man’s PA system began to be rented out to other artists after they played their last show in December 1976, and Concert Sound was born in Watford with Hall initially at the business helm. Within the first two years of operation, Concert Sound quickly earned a reputation for its excellent standard of service with artists ranging from Dire Straits, Tom Jones and Leo Sayer to a new breed of punk rockers including The Clash and The Ramones. Later moving to Luton, the business thrived throughout the Eighties and Nineties, and began working closely as the UK touring partner to US-based Clair Brothers. This partnership was solidified at the end of 2008 when Concert Sound joined forces with Switzerland’s AudioRent Clair, thus becoming the UK wing of the Clair Global family. Coinciding with the re-branding, Clair UK has a new web page at www.clairglobal.co.uk.

The NAMM Foundation is pleased to announce nominees for the 33rd NAMM Technical Excellence & Creativity (TEC) Awards. The annual awards are presented at The NAMM Show in Anaheim, California

We are pleased to announce that over £170,000 has now been raised from Concert at the Kings' events for cancer charities and local good causes.

With costs increasing every year, it gets harder to generate revenue for our chosen charities. Without the efforts of our many volunteers and suppliers who work tirelessly to bring everything together on the day, we just couldn't put an event of this size on.

And to everyone who buys tickets and supports Rock Against Cancer, we thank you.

After much thought we have decided to hold another event in 2018.

So add it to your diary, Saturday 26 May 2018 (Bank Holiday weekend).

Tickets and Line-up will be announced later this year.

See you there!
