A Magazine for Sheffield

Issue 124 July 2018

As always, we’re online only for July and August, coming back into print in September.

As well as managing our other projects, over summer we are deep in digital territory, focussing on redeveloping the existing Now Then Discounts app into simply the Now Then app.

This means that after summer we will have a mobile and tablet-friendly platform for all our content and artwork, delivered straight to your pocket free of charge. We’re really looking forward to it.

Last month we also released the Now Then 10 mix, celebrating just a tiny selection of the music we have showcased through the mag since 2008. Have a listen below.
