TWO businesses have teamed up to launch a new music venture.
Slipped Discs, a vinyl record stall on Knutsford Market Hall will be running a DJ pop-up at Swedish café Detaljer on Princess Street.
The two independent retailers are looking forward to working together and plan to introduce ‘Music Mondays’.

Caterine Hooper, owner of Detaljer said, “We are delighted to be working with fellow Knutsford independent Slipped Discs.
“Ian and his vinyl will be joining us each Monday, from February 6, to provide some background entertainment for our customers.
“Ian will be taking requests and if you want something a little more lively just ask.
“There will be a small selection of vinyl to buy too. Fika and vinyl a match made in heaven!”
To begin with, the pair plan to run the music evenings for four weeks in February to see how customers respond.
Each week will focus on a different theme of music, from 11am to 2pm.
If it turns out to be a hit, they hope to make it a monthly feature.
Sandra Curties, town centre manager, said, “We’ve such a strong band of independent retailers in Knutsford and it is great to see them working together.
“We hope Detaljer’s customers enjoy the vibe and if it showcases one of our lovely market hall traders and encourages people to visit the market then everyone is a winner.”
The market is home to a café, womenswear, a baby and child clothing boutique, garden ornaments, a butcher and fruit and veg stall. A greeting card stall is coming soon.
Stalls are open on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, from 8am to 4pm.
