Hello lovely people, the cogs of the 3b rebirth are beggining to move. A celebration of our culture, history and most importantly our future seemed the only fitting way to mark the next chapter.

We recently got in touch with the excellent Mark McNulty who has shared with us these photos of the 3beat store on Wood St many moons ago. Mark has captured so much UK culture over the years and it’s lovely he’s been able to share these with us. A lot of our customers weren’t born when we occupied this space (the majority of our current team wasn’t!) so it’s great to see this little bit of history.

Next week we’ll be outlining where we’re at with things as we’ve all waited long enough.

Thomas, Paddy, Alex, Joe, Harry & Nathan ❤️

👑 ROYALTY 👑

Two members of 3beat/3b royalty pictured together last night. Pezz - taken on as manager of 3beat in 1992, 3 years after it opened as a second hand stall in Quiggins in 1989 ran by Jon Barlow. Pezz was at the top during a time when Dance music and club culture in the UK was new, fresh and evolving into what we know it as today. He spent 17 years influencing not only Liverpool but scenes up and down the country. His reign of the shop came to an end in 2009 when the whole entity known as 3beat (label & shop) split to 2 separate businesses.

Next is Thomas Tuft - current big cheese. In 2009 he had been working at 3beat for 10+ years since 1998, him and 2 friends (Jemmy and Adam) took over the shop and renamed it 3b records. Jemmy and Adam departed the shop in 2016/17 and then the 3b emporium as it was last known was born. Record shop, bar, venue and all round music hub, built up by not only those mentioned here but many other dedicated and passionate individuals over the years. Their influence remains as important as ever to our story and future today.

Big love to all those who have been involved over the course of 3 decades, our story does not end here. The next chapter starts here x

**The end of the Slater Street chapter**

To our loyal customers from Liverpool and beyond, it is with great sadness and regret that we have to announce that our doors on Slater Street will not reopen. We have had ongoing difficulties with our landlord over the renewal of our lease for the last month or so. We have sought to negotiate both informally and legally however they seemed to have had other ideas from the start. We believe they have acted shady and unfairly but we have been left with no option but to spend the last week sorting and clearing out the shop of its 32 year history.

A full statement will be made in the coming weeks. Thank you to all of those that made our Slater Street hub so special, all of our staff, management, artists, DJs and most of all our customers who we have been proud to serve since day one.

This is not the end of the 3b story & please stay tuned for further movements!
