Selfridges launches Summer of Sound as it dives deep into music merch and experiences

Music and musicians are increasingly important for premium and high-end fashion these days — just think of Oasis, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift and more — so it's perhaps no surprise that Selfridges ' latest big activation is its Summer of Sound. It's a 'season of unmissable merch, unexpected experiences and moments made for fans,' we're told. 'A blockbuster summer of major comebacks, favourite throwbacks and diverse music events acts as the creative catalyst for a season of experience and community'. Essentially, this month and next, the retailer becomes 'a venue for fans, enthusiasts and music lovers'. That means a record shop, live performances, 'engaging conversation, listening parties and karaoke bring sonic energy to Selfridges London, Manchester and Birmingham'. It has signed up a 'zeitgeisty line-up of partners', including artists, brands and music experts to help shape programming, destinations and exclusive access to talent and products. Collaborators include Bravado, Young Space, Manchester International Festival, Are We On Air?, Elevator Music, Pirate Studio, Not/Applicable, Josh Baker and Nadine Noor. The windows of the Oxford Street, London, flagship have become a 'deconstructed gig' capturing the 'vibe and emotion of live music in its many forms – a tour bus, stage set and lights, a dance floor'. Judd Crane, the retailer's executive director, Buying & Brand, hailed the event as 'a celebration of the culture of music fandom, the influence of music merch and the unmistakeable sound of our cities. Building on a legacy of music-led collaboration, Selfridges will share its point of view at the intersection of fashion, retail and pop culture.' So let's look at the details of what can be found. The retailer said that the record shop 'is the heart and soul of any music community and for Summer of Sound, Selfridges has enlisted Rough Trade, independent record label and retailer, founded in London in 1976, as an anchor partner to the project'. In the London Wonder Room, Rough Trade 'selects vinyl favourites, old and new' at The Record Store, opening on 14 July. The adjacent window situated on the corner of Oxford Street and Orchard Street will host weekly live performances, programmed by Studio Inside Out. Comeback tours In the home of Heavy Metal, Birmingham, and reflecting Black Sabbath's return to stage, 'a unique experience has been created for fans of the legendary band. An exclusive Back To The Beginning fan experience and windows by local artist, Mr Murals, act as an immersive extension of the Black Sabbath world, drawing inspiration from the band's legacy and visual identity'. Back in London, celebrating the Oasis comeback tour, a fan destination is home to a 16-piece collection with three exclusive styles, including two black T-shirts with the Oasis logo. An exclusive hoodie celebrates key dates in the band's history. The exclusive tour merchandise is also available in the Manchester Exchange store. There's more music-linked merch in 'a unique partnership with Bravado' as tour merch for some of the biggest live music moments of the summer are available exclusively in Selfridges London Designer Street Room on 1, at The Merch Shop. Collections drop weekly, aligning with artists' shows in the city, including Post Malone and Lola Young. Meanwhile Not/Applicable, long-term Reselfridges partner, 'curates merch greatest hits, with band and tour tees and memorabilia'. From 11 August, fans will be able to explore and shop exclusive apparel from BBC Playback. This 'nostalgic merch concept celebrates BBC Music's impact on British music and culture'. The summer will also include 'cultural producer, consultant and nightlife icon' Nadine Noor programming DJs to play 'uplifting sets, bringing together new, niche and next genres'. And Chicago-based global performance platform Elevator Music, will programme an unexpected line-up of performances in the lifts at the Oxford Street store across three days in August. Meanwhile an Are We On Air? 'Kiosk-o-Thèque' lands in London for a four-day takeover of Selfridges's corner window. With live interviews, DJ sets, live performances, a shop and cultural salon sees the Kiosk-o-Thèque blending 'music, fashion, art, and conversation into a live, immersive experience — where the Sunset Strip energy meets Oxford Street'. There's more at Birmingham and Manchester too. As well as the heavy Metal moment, the Birmingham store also has happenings as part of the Birmingham Jazz Festival and other events. And Manchester's Exchange Square store sees Selfridges continuing its partnership with Manchester International Festival, via performances, exhibits and more.

Miley Cyrus and Naomi Campbell team up for raunchy new music video - after furious fans accused them of being being rude

launched a new video with supermodel Naomi Campbell - little more than a week after the pair were accused of being rude to fans during a meet-and-greet in London. The singer, 32, has collaborated with the 55-year old supermodel on Every Girl You've Ever Loved - the latest single from her newly released album Something Beautiful. A raunchy new video for the song, in which Campbell features on vocals, opens with Cyrus singing and dancing her way through a dark warehouse in a black minidress. After the first verse, Campbell purrs: 'She has the perfect scent, pose, she speaks the perfect French.' Dressed in a full-length black trench coat, she adds: 'She never wears a watch, but still she's never late, she's got that kind of grace, did Botticelli paint your face? 'She has the perfect scent, she speaks the perfect French, she can dance the night away and yet she'll never break a sweat,' before repeating 'pose' several times. The video already has more than 536K views in the 12 hours since it was posted, with over 49K likes from her 19.8 million subscribers. Campbell also left a comment on the video, writing: 'So proud to be part of this powerful moment with you, Miley.' She added: 'Your vision, your voice, your heart - it all shines through. Thank you for including me in this project. Who else is obsessed with this video?' The release comes after Cyrus and Campbell made an appearance at iconic London venue Rough Trade, where they signed vinyl copies of her latest single Every Girl You've Ever Loved. However, they were criticized for spending more time talking to each other than the fans they were supposed to be meeting. Among the several fans who complained was YouTuber Juanito Say, who wrote alongside a clip from the event: 'You pay for a meet & greet to meet Miley Cyrus... And she totally ignores you because she's busy chatting with Naomi.' Cyrus explained that she and Campbell were only supposed to be signing limited vinyl copies of their new single Every Girl You've Ever Loved - two full weeks ahead of the official release date on July 11. 'The record store requested no photos due to the unexpected last-minute turn out,' she said. 'But we knew the night needed to be captured. Thank you [Vijat Mohindra] for snapping those in-the-moment shots. To everyone who came out to celebrate our single, we love you.' Indeed, a cameraman is heard in each video repeatedly instructing Miley and Naomi's fans to turn around: 'Right behind you for the picture!'

Miley Cyrus fires back after fans accuse her of being 'rude' at signing event

To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Miley Cyrus appears to have hit back after facing serious heat over 'ignoring' fans at a meet and greet, instead chatting to Naomi Campbell. The duo were in London for the launch of Miley's album film Something Beautiful, having collaborated on new single, Every Girl You've Ever Loved. Eager fans waited in line for the chance to meet the Flowers hitmaker and the legendary supermodel — but that excitement didn't last long. Those who had queued for hours at the Rough Trade store were left disappointed and many felt the duo had 'ignored' them. As seen on Naomi's own live stream, Miley, 32, and the 55-year-old star chatted away at the table. They said hi as a fan approached them but returned to their conversation while she quietly stood in front of them. After being prompted by the fan, Miley said 'nice to meet you' and signed the vinyl as someone behind the camera said 'right behind you gorge[ous]' and the trio awkwardly posed for a picture. Now Miley has posted on social media, seemingly responding to the backlash, and giving an explanation to the footage. 'Our vinyl was originally set to drop a week later, but since we were both in London @roughtradeeast made it happen day of,' she began on Instagram. 'I wanted to gift my Smilers an exclusive experience & unreleased vinyl to thank you for the love you've shown me in the UK over the years. 'I saw so many familiar faces & met some sweet new ones. The record store requested no photos due to the unexpected last minute turn out but we knew the night needed to be captured. 'Thank you @vijatm for snapping those in the moment shots. To everyone who came out to celebrate our single, we love you.' Miley initially posted on Instagram that she 'adored' meeting the fans and thanking them for attending the signing. She opened her post by praising Naomi for making her laugh, thanking her for coming and adding: 'I'll miss you until we reunite. Love you forever.' The Climb icon was torn apart in the comments by disgruntled fans, blasting her for not 'reading the room'. 'Sorry to everyone who went and got a photo with them talking to one another,' commented leannems, which racked up almost 2,000 likes. 'The way you ignored your fans lol,' said emmanvelsoto as danttttas added: 'girl, i mean, READ THE ROOM.' 'Girl you were very rude to your fans at this signing,' slammed blackmagicblues while andresilvaf said: 'Treat your fans better next time.' 'Absolutely shocking behaviour of you pair on the signing… These are your fans Miley, they can quickly change their minds,' warned gregggless. Some did defend Miley, with X account The Miley Cyrus HQ writing: 'With the whole Naomi x Miley incident all I can say is… 'She paid for ALL the vinyls. Her Instagram only said 'signed vinyl' and she literally was there. That's a bonus. She did NOT have to be there. It was one interaction out of a 100. That's a 1 % 'error'. TLDR: stfu.' Miley has a long history of being interactive with her fans as well as plenty of philanthropic work supporting homeless people and LGBTQ+ youth. However, this film release has already faced some backlash as fans thought they were paying $800 for a concert – not a film premiere. At New York's Beacon Theatre on June 6, the hour-long film debuted but complaints emerged claiming they'd been misled into believing the premiere would feature a live performance. The Wrecking Ball hitmaker did launch into a cappella rendition of The Climb (from her Hannah Montana days) in response. Miley and Naomi have not addressed the controversy, with the Angels Like You singer posting multiple Instagrams in the wake of the meet and greet. More Trending She penned: 'Getting lost in London… dancing with you all to the music was heaven. I've never experienced the film like this before.' In a subtle response, she posted plenty of pictures of fans having a good time at her intimate gig, with one snap showing her taking a selfie with someone in the crowd.
