Music and art are beyond culture and entertainment. They are the guiding lights of the world, soul-soothing, & eye-pleasing for their admirers, and a form of expression for the creators. If you are equally passionate about such creatively expressive forms, head to Grand Old House today!
On 21st April’23, our vintage restaurant is hosting a Vinyl Art Event in the Wine Bar, where you will be witnessing the most spectacular sights of our wonderfully talented artists.
What is vinyl? Vinyl is a plastic material often used in making music records and audio recordings.
The era of vinyl records started in the 19th century and stayed until the mid-20th century. Soon after, we witnessed the evolution of music, and people welcomed digital audio formats, such as CDs, DVDs, MP3 players, streaming devices, etc.
However, this was not the end. In 2008, the period of vinyl records was revived. Many audiophiles preferred to be free from digital music and gravitated towards collecting and embracing vinyl records as their personal vintage collection.
Today vinyl records have become quite prevalent to the extent that artists use vinyl material qualities as their medium to create visual art. This confluence of two creative fields can be observed in venues such as clubs, bars, and our premier waterfront restaurant in Cayman.
This Friday night will be one to remember. You will witness the greatest vinyl night of the year with a priceless collection of vintage wines and lip-smacking food in the Cayman Islands.
Vinyl nights will always remain incomplete without visual art and live music in Cayman. We are delighted to share that we will be exhibiting the most vibrant and profound painting of Carlos V Garcia, an extremely talented artist of Cayman. So, if you missed the chance to capture a glimpse of this beauty, it’s your time to catch the sight and embrace it.
Upon capturing the first glimpse of the portrait, you will notice that the art is the amalgamation of creative empathy towards a well-known vocalist and vinyl records.
The portrait was inspired by Diana Ross, a renowned American singer and actress, and vinyl records. Ross was the lead singer of the vocal group called Supremes in the 1960s. During that period, Numerous vinyl records were used to release many of her group recordings and singles. In the 1970s, she bid farewell to Supremes and commenced her musical career as a solo artist. She even featured in films, on television, and on stage and became the leading female artist in the history of the entertainment industry.
From the ’60s till today, she experienced a rollercoaster ride in her career. From vinyl records to digital music production, she witnessed it all. However, her work remained a testament to time, so much so that in July 2020, all of her “Supertronic Mixes” were released on CD and crystal-clear vinyl LP.
Her truly remarkable and admirable journey can be perceived through the portrait. It’s vibrant, memorable, and iconic.
Coming back to our synopsis. The vinyl nights will feature the hottest tunes from famous artists. Cayman’s very own Jerry will play the original vinyl record. So, get ready for an immersive experience and nostalgic feel of the records.
Wait up! The night doesn’t end here. Throughout your period, we will cater to you with refreshing and chilled cocktails, delicious Tapas (appetizers), and of course, our classic varieties of wine from different regions of the world.
