The Record Club launches on Spotify and TikTok

September 21, 2023

Record Store Day, National Album Day and Official Charts’ live stream series will be available to watch in full on Spotify from 20th September

The Record Club in association with Bowers & Wilkins today unveils a brand-new look as the music series supporting new album releases and record stores launches on Spotify.


Episodes will now be available to watch the day after broadcast on The Record Club’s official Spotify page. To celebrate, a Spotify exclusive episode with singer/songwriter Birdy will be available to watch here where she discusses her highly anticipated fifth studio album Portraits, and the cathartic process of writing the record.


Followers can also now watch clips of previous episodes and catch announcements of upcoming guests through The Record Club’s newly launched TikTok page.

Presented by the recently announced host of BBC Introducing on BBC Radio 1, Jess Iszatt, The Record Club is thrilled to continue its partnership with renowned premium audio brand Bowers & Wilkins which will amplify the series even further to their 450K followers and contribute a set of its new award-winning Px7 S2e over-ear noise-cancelling headphones as a competition prize to a fan every episode.


The Record Club with Bowers & Wilkins offers music fans and record collectors exclusive interviews and album insights from some of the biggest artists in the world. The digital collaboration by Record Store Day, National Album Day and Official Charts launched in May 2020 to support record shops through the challenge of lockdown, and has gone from strength to strength with the backing of Bowers & Wilkins to become a fortnightly platform for promoting new releases from a diverse range of artists.

Each episode features a fan Q&A with the week's guest, with one special question provided by an indie record shop. The Record Club is proud to bring artists and fans together, encouraging viewers to support their local record shop.


The series has had over one million organic views, while welcoming over 70 artist guests including Blondie, Jessie Ware, Olly Murs, James Bay, Sigrid, James Blunt, Maisie Peters, Rudimental, Phoebe Bridgers, KSI, McFly, Paloma Faith and Wolf Alice to discuss their latest records. 

Host Jess Iszatt said:

"It's amazing that The Record Club has been going for over three years, and I'm really excited for this next chapter on Spotify! I've had so much fun celebrating albums with fans and artists every episode and it's great that we're able to do it with the support of Bowers & Wilkins."

Giles Pocock, Vice-President of Brand Marketing, Bowers & Wilkins commented:

“Helping artists to tell the story behind their music is incredibly important to Bowers & Wilkins and The Record Club has established itself as such a valuable platform for enabling artists to connect with fans in a truly authentic and engaging way.

The Record Club series continues with Yussef Dayes on Wednesday 27 September at 17:30 BST across The Record Club’s social media platforms.

ALBUM OF THE MONTH: THE LAST DINNER PARTY - FROM THE PYRE

October 1, 2025
From The Pyre is the second album from Brit Award winners, record shop favourites, and rising indie sensations, The Last Dinner Party. Coming off their Mercury Award–nominated Prelude to Ecstasy, the London-based five-piece are back, delivering theatrical indie rock that cements their place as one of the UK’s most exciting new bands. “It is our absolute delight to present our new album From The Pyre to the world,” the band say. “This record feels a little darker, more raw and more earthy; it takes place looking out at a sublime landscape rather than seated at an opulent table.” Although only a year has passed since their debut, the band have been cultivating these songs since their earliest rehearsals in 2020. Lead single Nothing Matters has been a staple of every setlist since their very first gig at the George Tavern. Reflecting on these early songs, the band say: “We have held, nurtured and fed these first songs for a long time, and in return they have flown us to heights and guided us on journeys once totally incomprehensible.” From The Pyre is a concept album, with character-driven stories bound by the allegorical world of ‘The Pyre’. Each track is imagined as part of a travelling medieval mystery play, with the band cast as its players. “This frame narrative felt like a way of visually representing our lives as a band, once again mythologising the everyday,” they explain. This month, indie record shops are stocking From The Pyre on exclusive Inferno 140g vinyl. With neon colours that echo the album cover, a 12x12” lyric sheet, and a collectible sticker, it’s a must for fans. So head to your local indie record shop and grab From The Pyre when it drops on 17th October - the Last Dinner Party’s second chapter of theatrical indie rock, perfect for vinyl lovers and anyone ready to dive into their mythic world!
