Transparent started out as a physical, printed mag/fanzine in 2005. We started putting on shows in London in early 2006, with artists including Girls, Laura Marling, Florence & The Machine, Foals, Telepathe, Noah and the Whale, The XX, Late of the Pier and The Very Best amongst others. The fanzine was morphed into the Blog you see before you and thats where we’ve been ever since. In Summer ’09 we put out the first of our limited vinyl releases on Transparent Records.
