Rehearsal footage captures music in its rawest form — before the performance is polished, before the audience arrives, before anyone is watching. These clips often reveal how arrangements evolved, how musicians communicated, and how the versions we know were shaped through trial and error. Some of the most fascinating footage in the archive is of bands working through songs that would become classics.
The Mekons are a British post-punk band formed in 1976 as an art collective. They are one of the longest-running and most prolific of the first-wave British punk rock bands. Although the Mekons' lineup has changed from time to time over the years, the core line-up includes Jon Langford, Sally Timms (vocals), Tom Greenhalgh and Susie Honeyman (violin).
