Clubbing brand plans to turn Yorkshire hairdressers into record store and bar
A Sheffield clubbing brand is aiming to open a record shop and bar in an area of the city popular for nights out.
Unity Underground Ltd has applied to Sheffield City Council for a licence for a former hairdresser’s premises on Ecclesall Road. The area is a favourite with university students.
The applicants want permission to play recorded music indoors and sell alcohol during their opening hours, which will be from11am to 9pm Tuesday to Thursday, 11am to 11pm Friday to Saturday and noon to 6pm on Sundays.
Jungle, drum and bass music brand Unity Underground was co-founded by DJs, promoters and producers King Chuga and RACH in 2022.
Their website, https://www.unityunderground.co.uk/, says that the duo have been part of the music scene since the 1990s.
The chance to make written representations about the proposal to the council closed on Tuesday, August 18.
An application for a drinks licence has also been made by a shop on Ecclesall Road.
Mr Blue, which sells vapes, tobacco, soft drinks and confectionery, wants an off sales licence from 6pm to 1am seven days a week.
The applicant is Morteza Ghorbani.
Written representations about the application can be made until Monday, August 24.
