Secret 7" is a charitable project that ran for seven years, with its final show in 2020. Each year they selected 7 tracks by 7 musicians to be pressed onto 7" vinyl. Creatives from around the world could then submit their sleeve designs, with the winning entries being sold anonymously for charity. The creator of each design was kept secret until after the sale.

I was lucky enough to have work selected three times over the years, and it's been a real privilege to exhibit alongside people such as Ai Weiwei, Gilbert & George, The Designer's Republic, Jon Burgerman and many others. Back in 2013 I had a design for 'The Don' by Nas picked for the show, then in 2018 I did a sleeve for Primal Scream's 'Damaged'. For their final exhibition I designed a double-sided sleeve for Vampire Weekend's 'Harmony Hall', which went on to raise £185 for the refugee charity Choose Love.

It's a great project which has raised huge amounts for charity over the last seven years and I have thoroughly enjoyed taking part. You can find out more about their work on their site here: www.secret-7.com
