Telford Mod ensures subculture is alive and kicking for a new generation

 


A Telford man is doing his bit to ensure the Mod culture is alive and well while raising money for charity in the process.

Johnny Bradley's Mods of Your Generation is hosting live events on its Facebook page to promote the Mod subculture, fundraise and help fans discover new music and art.

Mods Of Your Generation is committed to continuing, reviving, sustaining, and promoting the culture that started in the late 1950s. Johnny does this by hosting gatherings for fans of Mod culture with live music to raise money for charity.

Johnny and his team do this by gathering a community of passionate people and promoting and interviewing the musicians, authors, actors, designers, and creators.

"I pride myself in promoting a cohesive, inclusive community and everything the Mod scene has to offer," said Johnny.

"At Mods Of Your Generation, we believe that there is a sustainable audience not only in the United Kingdom but worldwide that share our passion for the Mod subculture. I want to make sure that mod culture not only remains part of our history but, more importantly, our future."

Johnny started the Mods Of Your Generation platform in 2015 for his expressions and entertainment. To his surprise, many people who identify came on board, and the forum has been growing every day.

In March last year the group organized an event at Cordingley Hall, Donnington, to raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust. Hundreds of mod fans showed up to help raise nearly £1,500.

The event featured 12 hours of live music and DJ, allowing musicians and fans to connect.

Johnny plans to organize more such events to entertain more than 17,000 fans of his Mods of Your Generation Facebook page and raise money to support charities. He also wants to help musicians connect with fans and promote their brands by interviewing artists and reviewing albums.

Johnny will be hosting another live event in Donnington in 2022 and will post updates on social media.
