William D Drake & His So-Called Friends - 'Moulded By Industry' - ALBUM LAUNCH

CD/LP/DD - Released 9th October 2026 - Onomatopoeia Records

Doors 7pm - Event taking place in Studio 1

We invite you to attend an Onomatopoeia Records evening to celebrate the release of:

Moulded By Industry by William D. Drake, his first album in 11 years and sixth as a solo artiste.

Mr J. Larcombe will open proceedings with a set of melodeon jigs, reels and whatnots.

William D. Drake & His So-Called Friends will play a selection of songs from Moulded By Industry and, if you ask nicely and your behaviour meets the appropriate standard, another classic or so.

Mr Drake has deigned to endure an interview/Q&A session. You are welcome to send your questions in advance to onoman@onophonic.com or fruitlessly attempt to shout o’er the throng on the evening. If Mr Drake isn’t inclined to answer your question he will simply say “Gigadibs”.

Mr Drake will be on hand to sign copies of Moulded By Industry and pose for shameless selfies.

Cocktails to be supped. Friends old and new to be greeted.

We hope you can join us.

Moulded By Industry will be released on Onomatopoeia Records on 9^th October on LP, CD and download/streaming.
