The Last Dinner Party, a queer British rock band, recently won their second BRIT award for Best New Artist, emphasizing the importance of supporting independent music venues during their acceptance speech. Georgia Davies, a member of the band, stated that these venues are essential for the music industry and are at risk of disappearing. The band, who previously won the Rising Star award, has released a successful debut album inspired by their queer teenage experiences and is currently working on new music.
Davies highlighted the importance of independent music venues, stating, "they are the lifeblood of the music industry and they are dying."
Davies addressed the audience, urging support for independent venues: "If venues like this contributed even a tiny bit toward these independent venues, we would not be losing them at this alarming rate."
The band won their second BRIT award and expressed gratitude: "This is the biggest honour of our lives," said Davies, thanking supporters.
Morris shared her excitement about new music, saying, "it feels really good to be creating again after touring for so long."
