''When we formed the band the room provided us with an essential space to write new songs. It allowed us the opportunity to experiment and develop our sound together and finish and demo the songs which would become our debut album 'Ink'. It was somewhere which sped up our creative process and helped us get properly started.''
- Gerard Sands, Dark Tropics
The Joe Strummer Foundation played a vital role in funding the creation of two Oh Yeah rehearsal spaces. The foundation was impressed with our plans for one space and ultimately supported the building of two. Additionally, they provided artwork, images, lyric sheets, and insights into the songwriting process of The Clash to inspire and support young songwriters and bands. These were the first two spaces, originally named "Oh Yeah Rooms," located on the top floor.
After Joe Strummer's sudden and tragic passing, we wanted to honor his legacy by creating something positive. One year later, Strummerville was rebranded as the Joe Strummer Foundation, with a clear mission to support musicians and projects that promote empowerment through music.
