OneclubA once monthly club night of soulful and funky house for LGBT folk from every section of our community their friends and admirers! Launch night is July 16th Launched by ‘Fundamental Productions’ this monthly club night of soulful and funky house for all of Bristol’s LGBT communities – especially those from Bristol’s black and minority ethnic (BME) groups. Working alongside numerous organisations – including Bristol City Council, The Black Development Agency and Pride Bristol – Fundamental Productions is inviting LGBT people from BME communities to come out and play at ONE, a new club night which launches on Pride Bristol night on 16 July. Having spent many years out and about on the gay scene in both Bristol and London, Pete Aiton and Mike Evans wanted to mix things up and launch a new monthly club night that everyone in Bristol’s LGBT community can enjoy. Pete Aiton, of Fundamental Productions, says: “Bristol is very proud of its huge diversity, yet this diversity is not always reflected in its gay scene.” “With ONE, we are seeking to add a bit more diversity to the mix. Everyone is welcome but we want to create a safe space that will appeal to LGBT folk from Bristol’s black and minority ethnic groups.” Bristol-based DJ Mike Evans is also the BME lead for this year’s Pride Bristol Festival. Mike will be available in the community tent at Pride to discuss the needs of the BME LGBT community in Bristol.
