NEWS: Speedy Wunderground celebrate their 10th Anniversary with Ltd Edition Boxset and party featuring Speedy alumni past, present and future

Esteemed indie label, Speedy Wunderground, celebrates its 10th Birthday this year. Headed up by producer Dan Carey alongside Alexis Smith and Pierre Hall, the fast-moving, ever-evolving creative force that is Speedy has seen numerous professional accolades and personal triumphs over the last ten years, always acting on own terms and intuition. Most recently, the label picked up ‘Best Small Label’ at the AIM Awards and ‘UK Producer of The Year’ at the Music Producer Guild Awards for co-founder Dan Carey.

They have released debut singles and some of the earliest material from a wide range of now well-established acts including Squid, black midi, Black Country, New Road, Loyle Carner, Kae Tempest and The Lounge Society and garnered critical praise for Carey across a range of successful production work for the likes of Wet Leg, Fontaines D.C, slowthai and more.

This year will mark their 10th anniversary, and they have just announced their celebration of this momentous occasion with the news of a party at London’s iconic Village Underground on Saturday 16th September. Carey and team will curate a mammoth 7-hour celebration and, in typical Speedy style, no official line up will be announced until closer to the event – but it promises to feature a sure fire array of SW alumni ‘past, present and future.’  A recent tweet said, “Rest assured – it will feature a cast of Speedy alumni…from across the albums, EP’s & single series from the last decade – as well as DJs, special guests & of course – a few surprises.”
