Label Love: Bella Union Competition Time!

Over the last week, we’ve been celebrating everything to do with one of our favourite independent labels, London based Bella Union.

We’ve chatted to Lanterns on the Lake about the label, we’ve shown you an exclusive Veronica Falls session, we’ve spoken to Zun Zun Egui about their newly released album, Katang and we caught up with John Grant.

To top it all off, Mr Bella Union himself, Simon Raymonde, has offered us a brilliant insight into the inner working of the label, as well as rounding up the year and giving us somethrilling hints of what we can expect from the label in 2012.

To round off the week, we’ve got a brilliant competition for you all, offering one lucky winner NOT ONLY a bundle of Bella Union goodies (including T-shirts and CDs), but also a pair of tickets to any three Bella Union UK shows over the next 12 months!

So what do you need to do to win?

We’ve thought long and hard about this and decided the best way to find a worthy winner is to get you to draw your favourite Bella Union artist, and post it to our Facebook page.

Here’s in an example that I’ve drawn, and frankly – you’re all just lucky that I’m not allowed to enter this competition…

Chosen medium: Biro Chosen style: Realism. Title: Midlake, Mid-Lake

Competition closes at 12 noon on Friday 14 October, and please note that the tickets will only be available for UK shows.

Good luck!
