For this episode of City Soundtracks Emily Pilbeam visits the New Adelphi Club in Hull to find out about the music legends who have played in the city and meet Hull band LIFE. Mez from LIFE tells Emily all about the community spirit that backs up the creatives of Hull and how the New Adelphi Club is a venue so loved by bands that Pulp helped create the bar with their flight cases.
