Like all good artistically inspired projects, Rainoff developed organically. Decisions made over pints at the local grew into an independent publishing and distribution house with an impressive roster of local artists and international publications.
Rainoff publish books filled photographic works by local artists Sam Ash and Samuel Hodge. Labours of love they spend hours curating, compiling and presenting to the world at large. They distribute the oblique Daddy magazine and the recently launched, much heralded Mountain Fold Music Journal. They open curated bookshops, give them eponymous names, only to close them again two weeks later. That was always the plan, you see? There will be more, they assure us.
