John Grant, The Shins and more to take part in Tim Burgess' Broken Record Festival later this month

Tim Burgess' Twitter listening parties have attracted a huge amount of attention - so much so that he even has his own Twitter emoji - and have succeeded in creating a community spirit in times of isolation through the power of revisiting music and journeying through albums start-to-finish together.

With a jam-packed schedule over the next month, Burgess has announced a one-day listening party festival titled The Broken Record Festival.

It'll take place later this month, and it'll run for four hours - from 6pm-10pm BST - visiting albums including PINS' Wild Nights, John Grant's Pale Green Ghosts, KT Tunstall's Eye To The Telescope, The Shins' Oh, Inverted World, and Boy George's Culture Club's Colour By Numbers.
